[Libmesh-users] GMV read mesh and solution

[Andrea H. <and...@gm...>]

Hello-

I am wondering if there is a way to read in from a gmv file both the
solution and the mesh. (Had a run on lonestar that finished before writing
out to a solution and mesh file. Lesson learned... but, I only have the gmv
files and it would be nice to save those computation hours.)

In the online documentation of write_nodal_data, it looks like there is
something to do this, but I cannot find it. Perhaps I am mis-interpreting
it? But, as I copied below, it says  "Extension of the
MeshInput::read()<http://libmesh.sourceforge.net/doxygen/classMeshInput.php#9d70b68a1cf29ba6a123c9270aac0c07>routine
which also takes an optional
EquationSystems<http://libmesh.sourceforge.net/doxygen/classEquationSystems.php>pointer
and tries to read field variables from the
GMV <http://libmesh.sourceforge.net/doxygen/namespaceGMV.php> file into the
EquationSystems<http://libmesh.sourceforge.net/doxygen/classEquationSystems.php>object."
But it definitely looks like this routine is writing out data. I
looked at the GMVIO::read, but it did not seem to indicate an optional
EquationsSystems argument. Did I just miss it?

Thank you!
Andrea
