integrate hdf5 with vtk

Hello everyone,

I am working on a project which targets to visualize large scale data.Given
the size of generated data is very large,we plan to use hdf5 to store and
manage data.The data is computed in real time and should be visualized and
store to disk simultaneously.I wonder if anyone had any experience
concerning about the integration between hdf5 and VTK/ParaView?How to
visualize the datasets contained in a hdf5 file?

Thanks a lot .

You might want to look into XDMF, which is supported by Paraview:

  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XDMF

We have just started to experiment with that in one of our projects,
it seems to work well, but not yet thorough experience with it.

Hello Werner.I very appreciate your comment.XDMF does seems like to be what
I want.
