* A new class, vtkSMClientSideDataProxy, has been created to return a vtkDataSet from the servers.  To use it, use the AddInput() method to connect it to a source proxy, then call GetCollectedData() to return a vtkDataSet.  Internally, it uses vtkMPIMoveData to handle the transfer of data from server(s) to client.

Rough Draft

Requirements

  • Support collection of data from one-to-many parallel servers
  • Support collection of data subsets from one-to-many parallel servers: X/Y plots, histograms, etc

Implementation

  • A new class, vtkSMClientSideDataProxy, has been created to return a vtkDataSet from the servers. To use it, use the AddInput() method to connect it to a source proxy, then call GetCollectedData() to return a vtkDataSet. Internally, it uses vtkMPIMoveData to handle the transfer of data from server(s) to client.
