Detailed Description

Provides a means of accumulating file entries for generating a vtkMultiBlockDataSet (.vtm) file.

For example, to generate the following content:

<?xml version='1.0'?>
<VTKFile type='vtkMultiBlockDataSet' ...>
  <vtkMultiBlockDataSet>
    <DataSet name='internal' file='internal.vtu' />
    <Block name='boundary'>
      <DataSet name='inlet' file='boundary/inlet.vtp' />
      <DataSet name='outlet' file='boundary/outlet.vtp' />
    </Block>
  </vtkMultiBlockDataSet>
  <FieldData>
    <DataArray type='Float32' Name='TimeValue' ...>
       12.345
    </DataArray>
  </FieldData>
</VTKFile>

The following code would be used:

vtm.clear();
vtm.setTime(12.345);
vtm.append("internal", "internal.vtu");
vtm.beginBlock("boundary");
vtm.append("boundary/inlet.vtp");
vtm.append("boundary/outlet.vtp");
vtm.write("outputName");
