Dear all friends
I am really green to the usage of Paraview.
I have been using the ANSYS for large scale FE analysis. Recently I node
that the paraview has the ability of view and postprocess the large .rst
file and it has already added the ANSYS file reader function.
However, I get limited information on how to do this.
According to the menu, I will have to create a Cmakelist.txt file like :
PROJECT(VisItReaderExample)
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8)
FIND_PACKAGE(ParaView REQUIRED)
INCLUDE(${PARAVIEW_USE_FILE})
SET(SOURCES
avtMyReaderFileFormat.C
)
ADD_VISIT_PLUGIN_READER(VisItReaderExample "1.0"
VISIT_READER_NAME "avtMyReaderFileFormat"
VISIT_READER_TYPE "STMD"
VISIT_READER_FILE_PATTERN "cas"
SERVER_SOURCES ${SOURCES}
)
TARGET_LINK_LIBRARIES(VisItReaderExample vtkVisItAVTAlgorithms)
where avtMyReaderFileFormat.cxx is the source of the VisIt reader,
VISIT_READER_NAME is the name of the class inside the source file,
VISIT_READER_TYPE is the type of file format the reader is, and the
VISIT_READER_FILE_PATTERN is a space delimitated string of file extensions
that the reader supports. But I still dont get how I could change the the
file and how to import it into Paraview and then view my ANSYS file.
Say, the result file I will observe from ANSYS will be a .rst file , so
would this file be :
PROJECT(VisItReaderExample)
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8)
FIND_PACKAGE(ParaView REQUIRED)
INCLUDE(${PARAVIEW_USE_FILE})
SET(SOURCES
ANSYS.C
)
ADD_VISIT_PLUGIN_READER(VisItReaderExample "1.0"
VISIT_READER_NAME "ANSYS"
VISIT_READER_TYPE "Binary"
VISIT_READER_FILE_PATTERN "rst"
SERVER_SOURCES ${SOURCES}
)
TARGET_LINK_LIBRARIES(VisItReaderExample vtkVisItAVTAlgorithms)
Could anybody give me a right format of the Cmakelist of ANSYS reader and ,
if possible , enlighten me how.
Many thanks
