[Paraview] Creating Plugins

[Benjamin Schindler]

I just renamed the baseclass now (It is not inside a library so that's 
no issue) and the parser seems to accept this. Adding //btx //etx works 
but that's not really an ideal solution. IMHO, the grammar of the parser 
should be changed for such things to be possible.

I'm using the svn version of paraview and the parser seems to hang but 
it doesn't report an error. I assume that's a bug which will be fixed 
pretty soon

Thanks
Benjamin
