[OpenFOAM] Building Paraview with reader builtin instead of parafoam script

tj22 · January 18, 2006, 12:45

I would like to build paraview with the foam reader built in. So I need to
add the file to the paraview source and rebuild. I am a little lost as to
where I need to copy the PVFoamreader and VTKFoam files in order to build a
version of paraview that will have PVFoamReader as an option in the open
data section. Can anyone help with this?

Thanks.

PVFoamReader is loosely based on the ensight reader. Maybe you can figure out how that one is built-in (we haven't)
