Dear all,
When trying to read data generated on supercomputer (big-endian), the
ParaView PFlotran-reader fails. This is because the data generated on the
supercomputer is big-endian whereas my machine (Intel machine) uses
little-endian.
The workaround to fix this is to go to following directory:
Utilities/VisItBridge/databases/PFLOTRAN
and to the following file : avtPFLOTRANFileFormat.C
In the functions avtPFLOTRANFileFormat::GetVar(...) and
avtPFLOTRANFileFormat::GetVectorVar(...)
there are the following if-statement TWO TIMES IN BOTH FUNCTIONS, so 4
modifications are needed:
if (H5Tequal(intype, H5T_NATIVE_FLOAT) ||
H5Tequal(intype, H5T_NATIVE_DOUBLE) ||
H5Tequal(intype, H5T_NATIVE_LDOUBLE) )
Replace ALL 4 above OCCURRENCES by
if (H5Tequal(intype, H5T_NATIVE_FLOAT) ||
H5Tequal(intype, H5T_NATIVE_DOUBLE) ||
H5Tequal(intype, H5T_NATIVE_LDOUBLE) ||
H5Tequal(intype, H5T_IEEE_F32BE) ||
H5Tequal(intype, H5T_IEEE_F64BE) )
The problem is I have to compile paraview from source for each update or on
every machine. I was wondering whether this capability to read data from
big-endian machine could be included.
I´d appreciate your answer,
