I am hoping the members of this list will be able to help me see the amount of 
work that needs to be done.I am becoming a big fan of OpenFOAM, but the 
boundary condition selection for arbitrary geometries is lacking in my 
estimation. OpenFOAM introduced me to ParaView and I am wondering if it would 
be a perfect tool to specify the surfaces to which fluid boundary conditions 
should be applied.

I see an example called VTK/Rendering/Testing/Cxx/TestAreaSelections.cxx What 
do I need to do to get that example running? I am looking around the build 
directory and don't see an executable, but I do see the CMakeLists.txt file. 
For what I need to do, it would be sufficient to have an .obj model displayed 
in ParaView. Ideally, I would adapt this code to give me surface points. 

What would be involved in making this happen? I assume I'll be running gcc. Do 
I need to make it be part of a plug-in? I'm a little confused as to where 
"TestAreaSelections" interfaces with ParaView. 

Thanks,Chris
