Summary0013456: Extend pqPythonManager to execute pvpython from memory buffer rather than file (patch supplied)
DescriptionSummary:
  Request to extend python manager API to execute scripts from string buffer, rather than exclusively from external python file. Why? Within other plugins, filters, C++ programs, can be helpful to execute some small script. Currently, such small script must first be written to file, then executed, then removed.

Patch Submission:

Added executeRawScript() routine to pqPythonManager class to allow easy execution of pvpython scripts from memory-buffer, without needing to output them to external file first.

   patched files: pqPythonManager.[h,cxx]
   action: copy pqPythonManager.[h,cxx] to ParaView-3.14.1/Qt/Python

   DESCRIPTION:
   
   CHANGES: To make this patch, following changes were made (ParaView source patch):

       - Added declaration of added routine executeRawScript(...) to pqPythonManager.h Ln 136,
       - Added additional header files to pqPythonManager.cxx Ln 34-38 and
       - Added implementation of new routine executeRawScript(...) to pqPythonManager.cxx Ln 223-283.

Patch available for both 3.12 and 3.14.1. Tested and currently in production in application.

This is possible to do without a patch. You would do this:

#include "pqPythonShell.h"
#include "pqPythonDialog.h"

pythonManager()->pythonShellDialog()->shell()->executeScript("print 'hello world!'");

Functionality already supported.

Use:
pythonManager()->pythonShellDialog()->shell()->executeScript(....);
