vtkUnstructuredGridReader is a source object that reads ASCII or binary unstructured grid data files in vtk format. (see text for format details). The output of this reader is a single vtkUnstructuredGrid data object. The superclass of this class, vtkDataReader, provides many methods for controlling the reading of the data file, see vtkDataReader for more information.

Warning:
Binary files written on one system may not be readable on other systems.

Member Function Documentation

void vtkUnstructuredGridReader::ComputeInputUpdateExtents vtkDataObject   output [protected, virtual]
 

What is the input update extent that is required to produce the desired output? By default, the whole input is always required but this is overridden in many subclasses.

Reimplemented from vtkSource.

virtual const char* vtkUnstructuredGridReader::GetClassName   [virtual]
 

Return the class name as a string. This method is defined in all subclasses of vtkObject with the vtkTypeMacro found in vtkSetGet.h.

Reimplemented from vtkDataReader.

vtkUnstructuredGrid* vtkUnstructuredGridReader::GetOutput  
 

Get the output of this reader.

virtual int vtkUnstructuredGridReader::IsA const char *    type [virtual]
 

Return 1 if this class is the same type of (or a subclass of) the named class. Returns 0 otherwise. This method works in combination with vtkTypeMacro found in vtkSetGet.h.

Reimplemented from vtkDataReader.

int vtkUnstructuredGridReader::IsTypeOf const char *    type [static]
 

Return 1 if this class type is the same type of (or a subclass of) the named class. Returns 0 otherwise. This method works in combination with vtkTypeMacro found in vtkSetGet.h.

Reimplemented from vtkDataReader.

vtkUnstructuredGridReader* vtkUnstructuredGridReader::New   [static]
 

Instantiate object with no start, end, or progress methods.

Reimplemented from vtkDataReader.

void vtkUnstructuredGridReader::PrintSelf ostream &    os,
vtkIndent    indent
[virtual]
 

Methods invoked by print to print information about the object including superclasses. Typically not called by the user (use Print() instead) but used in the hierarchical print process to combine the output of several classes.

Reimplemented from vtkDataReader.

vtkUnstructuredGridReader* vtkUnstructuredGridReader::SafeDownCast vtkObject   o [static]
 

Will cast the supplied object to vtkObject* is this is a safe operation (i.e., a safe downcast); otherwise NULL is returned. This method is defined in all subclasses of vtkObject with the vtkTypeMacro found in vtkSetGet.h.

Reimplemented from vtkDataReader.
