Detailed Description

defines the core interface for any ParaView plugin.

vtkPVPlugin defines the core interface for any ParaView plugin. A plugin implementing merely this interface is pretty much useless. The header file also defines few import macros that are required for exporting/importing plugins.

When debugging issues with plugins try setting the PARAVIEW_LOG_PLUGIN_VERBOSITY=<level> environment variable on all the processes where you are trying to load the plugin. That will print extra information as the plugin is being loaded. See vtkPVLogger::SetPluginVerbosity for details.

Provides access to binary resources compiled into the plugin.

This is primarily used to compile in icons and compressed help project (qch) files into plugins.

Reimplemented in AcceleratedAlgorithmsPlugin, AnalyzeNIfTIReaderWriterPlugin, ArrowGlyphPlugin, BagPlotViewsAndFiltersPlugin, CDIReaderPlugin, DataminePlugin, DigitalRockPhysicsPlugin, EmbossingRepresentationsPlugin, ExplicitStructuredGridPlugin, FlipBookPluginPlugin, GenericIOReaderPlugin, GeodesicMeasurementPlugin, GMVReaderPlugin, HyperTreeGridADRPlugin, IOSSReaderPlugin, LagrangianParticleTrackerPlugin, MomentsPlugin, MooseXfemClipPlugin, NetCDFTimeAnnotationPluginPlugin, NonOrthogonalSourcePlugin, PanoramicProjectionViewPlugin, SaveStateAndScreenshotPlugin, SLACToolsPlugin, StreamingParticlesPlugin, StreamLinesRepresentationPlugin, SurfaceLICPlugin, ThickenLayeredCellsPlugin, and VTKmFiltersPlugin.

◆ ImportPlugin()

static bool vtkPVPlugin::ImportPlugin ( vtkPVPlugin * plugin )

static

Used when import plugins programmatically.

This must only be called after the application has initialized, more specifically, all plugin managers have been created and they have registered their callbacks.

Note, if the plugin has EULA and the user declines the EULA, the import request will be ignored, and the plugin won't be imported. This does not mean, however, that the plugin won't have any side effects as the plugin library can have singletons that get initialized on library load.

Returns: true if the plugin was successfully imported.

◆ SetEULAConfirmationCallback()

static void vtkPVPlugin::SetEULAConfirmationCallback ( EULAConfirmationCallback callback )

static

Get/Set the static callback to call to confirm EULA.

◆ GetEULAConfirmationCallback()

static EULAConfirmationCallback vtkPVPlugin::GetEULAConfirmationCallback ( )

static

Type for EULAConfirmationCallback.

◆ SetFileName()

void vtkPVPlugin::SetFileName ( const char * filename )

protected

Set the filename the plugin is loaded from, if any.

If it's nullptr, then its assumed that the plugin is "linked-in" i.e. not loaded from an external file.
