VTK Reader and Writer

This module provides structured and unstructured file writers for the VTK XML File Formats that can be opened in the popular ParaView visualization application. Additionally a file reader is provided to import VTK files into Dune grid and data objects.

Compared to the classical Dune-Grid VTKWriter it supports some new features:

• User-selected floating point precision
• Writing StructuredGrid, RectilinearGrid, and ImageData
• Compressed (appended) binary format
• Writing parametrized elements with quadratic interpolation
• Higher-order Lagrange parametrized Elements and Data

The VtkReader supports UnstructuredGrid files in ASCII, BINARY, or COMPRESSED format and can be used in combination with a GridFactory.
