Summary0015716: Exodus refresh button doesn't update correctly
DescriptionThere is a bug with the exodus refresh button.

* Rename "cylinder_run1.e" as "cylinder.e" and open it.
* Load all the variables.
* Plot Global Variables Over Time.

* Next, delete cylinder.e, and rename "cylinder_run2.e" as "cylinder.e" and hit the "refresh data" button in Paraview.
* Now, click on the PlotGlobalVariablesOverTime view and everything should vanish.

 Also not working remote server. From a user:


The "Refresh" button that reads in new time steps for an existing/open data set doesn't work for me. I am connected to a paraview server on clusterName and trying to update the data in a simulation that is running. When I press the "Refresh" button, I get the following error:


ERROR: In /projects/viz/paraview/src/ParaView/4.4.0/ParaView4/ParaViewCore/ServerImplementation/Core/vtkSIProxy.cxx, line 134

vtkSISourceProxy (0x11888a80): Error pushing property state: Refresh

 I can reproduce the described behavior.

 The problem is likely with the reader. Looking at the Field Data from the second file loaded when clicking Refresh, the field data is not updated properly. There are fewer entries in each column than timesteps, which is why the Plot Global Variables Over Time filter does not consider the columns to be temporal data in the second file.

 Three things seem to be going on:

1) The function invoked by the Refresh button does not mark the reader as modified, so no data is updated.

2). If you add a Modified() all to the reader that is triggered by the Refresh() button, somehow all the arrays statuses are marked as inactive.

3). If you modify the statuses manually in the GUI, the arrays can be set to active. Point and cell arrays are then updated. Global data in the field data are being set to arrays cached during the initial reading of the file.

The solution will involve invalidating the cache entries for global data arrays.

 It would be great to think about a mechanism that could be generalized to other readers as everybody dream about a refresh button for every readers in PV!
