vtkMultiBlockDataSet

Section: Visualization Toolkit Filtering Classes

Usage

vtkMultiBlockDataSet is a vtkCompositeDataSet that stores a hierarchy of datasets. The dataset collection consists of multiple blocks. Each block can itself be a vtkMultiBlockDataSet, thus providing for a full tree structure. Sub-blocks are usually used to distribute blocks across processors. For example, a 1 block dataset can be distributed as following: @verbatim proc 0: Block 0: * ds 0 * (null)

proc 1: Block 0: * (null) * ds 1 @endverbatim

To create an instance of class vtkMultiBlockDataSet, simply invoke its constructor as follows

  obj = vtkMultiBlockDataSet
