I was reluctant to enable the reader in serial (i.e. not using MPI IO which I think is getting done by default with the parallel build) because of the following warnings that I got:
Warning: In /home/acbauer/CODE/ParaView/ ParaView/VTK/IO/Parallel/vtkWindBladeReader.cxx, line 942 vtkWindBladeReader (0x3a0c800): WindBladeReader error reading file: /home/acbauer/DATA/VTKLargeData/Data/WindBladeReader/test1_topo.wind Premature EOF while reading block of data. Expected 896000 but got 0 I just assumed that it was getting bad results so I didn't check the serial output with the parallel output. In either case the code should be changed before enabling it in serial so that it reads the files correctly and doesn't produce any warning messages.
