XDMF and VisIt

0 votes

Hello,

reading fenics 2016.1 XDMF+HDF5 files causes VisIt 2.10.3 to crash with a segmentation fault. VTK files work. The XDMF files work with Paraview.

Has anyone tried to post process XDMF/HDF5 data with VisIt and experienced similar behaviour?
Glad for any suggestions, thanks!

edit: it's a bug in the xdmf reader in visit 2.10.3. According to the visit mailing list (https://elist.ornl.gov/pipermail/visit-users/2016-September/019129.html) it works with the new version visit 2.11.0

It has worked with Visit in the past, so maybe it will be fixed again soon.

Yes, they told me it worked already with the very recent release 2.11.0. Did not yet manage to install it, though.
