	*Undocumented Block
virtual string	GetBlockIdArrayName ()
	When WriteAllTimeSteps is turned ON, the writer is executed once for each timestep available from the reader.
virtual string	GetFileName ()
	Name for the output file. If writing in parallel, the number of processes and the process rank will be appended to the name, so each process is writing out a separate file. If not set, this class will make up a file name.
virtual int	GetGhostLevel ()
	We never write out ghost cells. This variable is here to satisfy the behavior of ParaView on invoking a parallel writer.
virtual vtkModelMetadata	GetModelMetadata ()
	Specify the vtkModelMetadata object which contains the Exodus file model information (metadata) absent in the vtkUnstructuredGrid. If you have this object, you don't need to set any other values before writing. (Just the FileName and the Input.)

Detailed Description

vtkExodusIIWriter - Write Exodus II files

Description This is a vtkWriter that writes it's vtkUnstructuredGrid input out to an Exodus II file. Go to http://endo.sandia.gov/SEACAS/ for more information about the Exodus II format.

Exodus files contain much information that is not captured in a vtkUnstructuredGrid, such as time steps, information lines, node sets, and side sets. This information can be stored in a vtkModelMetadata object.

The vtkExodusReader and vtkPExodusReader can create a vtkModelMetadata object and embed it in a vtkUnstructuredGrid in a series of field arrays. This writer searches for these field arrays and will use the metadata contained in them when creating the new Exodus II file.

You can also explicitly give the vtkExodusIIWriter a vtkModelMetadata object to use when writing the file.

In the absence of the information provided by vtkModelMetadata, if this writer is not part of a parallel application, we will use reasonable defaults for all the values in the output Exodus file. If you don't provide a block ID element array, we'll create a block for each cell type that appears in the unstructured grid.

However if this writer is part of a parallel application (hence writing out a distributed Exodus file), then we need at the very least a list of all the block IDs that appear in the file. And we need the element array of block IDs for the input unstructured grid.

In the absense of a vtkModelMetadata object, you can also provide time step information which we will include in the output Exodus file.

Caveats If the input floating point field arrays and point locations are all floats or all doubles, this class will operate more efficiently. Mixing floats and doubles will slow you down, because Exodus II requires that we write only floats or only doubles.

We use the terms "point" and "node" interchangeably. Also, we use the terms "element" and "cell" interchangeably.

Member Function Documentation

override void Kitware.VTK.vtkExodusIIWriter.Dispose ( bool disposing )

protected

Automatically generated protected Dispose method - called from public Dispose or the C# destructor. DO NOT call directly.

Reimplemented from Kitware.VTK.vtkWriter.

virtual string Kitware.VTK.vtkExodusIIWriter.GetBlockIdArrayName ( )

virtual

When WriteAllTimeSteps is turned ON, the writer is executed once for each timestep available from the reader.

virtual string Kitware.VTK.vtkExodusIIWriter.GetFileName ( )

virtual

Name for the output file. If writing in parallel, the number of processes and the process rank will be appended to the name, so each process is writing out a separate file. If not set, this class will make up a file name.

virtual int Kitware.VTK.vtkExodusIIWriter.GetGhostLevel ( )

virtual

We never write out ghost cells. This variable is here to satisfy the behavior of ParaView on invoking a parallel writer.

virtual vtkModelMetadata Kitware.VTK.vtkExodusIIWriter.GetModelMetadata ( )

virtual

Specify the vtkModelMetadata object which contains the Exodus file model information (metadata) absent in the vtkUnstructuredGrid. If you have this object, you don't need to set any other values before writing. (Just the FileName and the Input.) Note that the vtkExodusReader can create and attach a vtkModelMetadata object to it's output. If this has happened, the ExodusIIWriter will find it and use it.

Here is the call graph for this function:

virtual int Kitware.VTK.vtkExodusIIWriter.GetStoreDoubles ( )

virtual

If StoreDoubles is ON, the floating point fields in the Exodus file will be double precision fields. The default is determined by the max precision of the input. If the field data appears to be doubles, then StoreDoubles will be ON, otherwise StoreDoubles will be OFF.

virtual int Kitware.VTK.vtkExodusIIWriter.GetWriteAllTimeSteps ( )

virtual

When WriteAllTimeSteps is turned ON, the writer is executed once for each timestep available from the reader.

virtual int Kitware.VTK.vtkExodusIIWriter.GetWriteOutBlockIdArray ( )

virtual

By default, the integer array containing the global Block Ids of the cells is not included when the new Exodus II file is written out. If you do want to include this array, set WriteOutBlockIdArray to ON.

virtual int Kitware.VTK.vtkExodusIIWriter.GetWriteOutGlobalElementIdArray ( )

virtual

By default, the integer array containing the global Element Ids is not included when the new Exodus II file is written out. If you do want to include this array, set WriteOutGlobalElementIdArray to ON.

virtual int Kitware.VTK.vtkExodusIIWriter.GetWriteOutGlobalNodeIdArray ( )

virtual

By default, the integer array containing the global Node Ids is not included when the new Exodus II file is written out. If you do want to include this array, set WriteOutGlobalNodeIdArray to ON.

Here is the call graph for this function:

virtual void Kitware.VTK.vtkExodusIIWriter.SetBlockIdArrayName ( string _arg )

virtual

When WriteAllTimeSteps is turned ON, the writer is executed once for each timestep available from the reader.

virtual void Kitware.VTK.vtkExodusIIWriter.SetFileName ( string _arg )

virtual

Name for the output file. If writing in parallel, the number of processes and the process rank will be appended to the name, so each process is writing out a separate file. If not set, this class will make up a file name.

virtual void Kitware.VTK.vtkExodusIIWriter.SetGhostLevel ( int _arg )

virtual

We never write out ghost cells. This variable is here to satisfy the behavior of ParaView on invoking a parallel writer.

void Kitware.VTK.vtkExodusIIWriter.SetModelMetadata ( vtkModelMetadata arg0 )

Specify the vtkModelMetadata object which contains the Exodus file model information (metadata) absent in the vtkUnstructuredGrid. If you have this object, you don't need to set any other values before writing. (Just the FileName and the Input.) Note that the vtkExodusReader can create and attach a vtkModelMetadata object to it's output. If this has happened, the ExodusIIWriter will find it and use it.

virtual void Kitware.VTK.vtkExodusIIWriter.SetStoreDoubles ( int _arg )

virtual

If StoreDoubles is ON, the floating point fields in the Exodus file will be double precision fields. The default is determined by the max precision of the input. If the field data appears to be doubles, then StoreDoubles will be ON, otherwise StoreDoubles will be OFF.

virtual void Kitware.VTK.vtkExodusIIWriter.SetWriteAllTimeSteps ( int _arg )

virtual

When WriteAllTimeSteps is turned ON, the writer is executed once for each timestep available from the reader.

virtual void Kitware.VTK.vtkExodusIIWriter.SetWriteOutBlockIdArray ( int _arg )

virtual

By default, the integer array containing the global Block Ids of the cells is not included when the new Exodus II file is written out. If you do want to include this array, set WriteOutBlockIdArray to ON.

virtual void Kitware.VTK.vtkExodusIIWriter.SetWriteOutGlobalElementIdArray ( int _arg )

virtual

By default, the integer array containing the global Element Ids is not included when the new Exodus II file is written out. If you do want to include this array, set WriteOutGlobalElementIdArray to ON.

virtual void Kitware.VTK.vtkExodusIIWriter.SetWriteOutGlobalNodeIdArray ( int _arg )

virtual

By default, the integer array containing the global Node Ids is not included when the new Exodus II file is written out. If you do want to include this array, set WriteOutGlobalNodeIdArray to ON.

virtual void Kitware.VTK.vtkExodusIIWriter.WriteAllTimeStepsOff ( )

virtual

When WriteAllTimeSteps is turned ON, the writer is executed once for each timestep available from the reader.

virtual void Kitware.VTK.vtkExodusIIWriter.WriteAllTimeStepsOn ( )

virtual

When WriteAllTimeSteps is turned ON, the writer is executed once for each timestep available from the reader.

virtual void Kitware.VTK.vtkExodusIIWriter.WriteOutBlockIdArrayOff ( )

virtual

By default, the integer array containing the global Block Ids of the cells is not included when the new Exodus II file is written out. If you do want to include this array, set WriteOutBlockIdArray to ON.

virtual void Kitware.VTK.vtkExodusIIWriter.WriteOutBlockIdArrayOn ( )

virtual

By default, the integer array containing the global Block Ids of the cells is not included when the new Exodus II file is written out. If you do want to include this array, set WriteOutBlockIdArray to ON.

virtual void Kitware.VTK.vtkExodusIIWriter.WriteOutGlobalElementIdArrayOff ( )

virtual

By default, the integer array containing the global Element Ids is not included when the new Exodus II file is written out. If you do want to include this array, set WriteOutGlobalElementIdArray to ON.

virtual void Kitware.VTK.vtkExodusIIWriter.WriteOutGlobalElementIdArrayOn ( )

virtual

By default, the integer array containing the global Element Ids is not included when the new Exodus II file is written out. If you do want to include this array, set WriteOutGlobalElementIdArray to ON.

virtual void Kitware.VTK.vtkExodusIIWriter.WriteOutGlobalNodeIdArrayOff ( )

virtual

By default, the integer array containing the global Node Ids is not included when the new Exodus II file is written out. If you do want to include this array, set WriteOutGlobalNodeIdArray to ON.

virtual void Kitware.VTK.vtkExodusIIWriter.WriteOutGlobalNodeIdArrayOn ( )

virtual

By default, the integer array containing the global Node Ids is not included when the new Exodus II file is written out. If you do want to include this array, set WriteOutGlobalNodeIdArray to ON.
