Changing the type attributes of the data arrays from e.g. float32 to float64 solved the problem on Mac OS X.

I can confirm the crash on OS X. Here is the top part of the stack trace:

And the same file works just fine on Windows 7 x64 using both a 32 bit and 64 bit 
ParaView. Odd. I don't think changing the floats->doubles is going to solve the 
problem. I did find some blank lines in the file, removed those but still crashed 
on OS X.

Dear Paraview developers and users,

I am using Paraview (3.14.1) to visualize the solution of a simulation program. 
The program generates data files in vtp format (ASCII). A representative file 
is attached.
Using Paraview on Windows 7 (64 Bit)  or ubuntu12.04 (32 Bit) everything works, 
but on Mac OS X (64 Bit) it crashes after clicking on the 'Apply'-Button or 
gives the message:
  'ERROR: In /Source/ParaView/release/ParaView/VTK/IO/vtkXMLDataReader.cxx, 
line 510 vtkXMLPolyDataReader (0x126f7c220):
  Cannot read point data array "my_scalars" from PointData in piece 0. The data 
array in the element may be too short.'

Is there anything I can do to handle this Mac OS specific problem?

Thanks for help,
Fabian
