Summary0001174: LA: Better ParaView Runtime Info
DescriptionPut more info about the build of paraview itself under the help tab. Maybe some of the cache and env variables from during the build? This would help the user know which mpirun should be used. Whether optimized, build date, which openGL, etc.

Lee,
  I checked in the main CVS the change so that the About dialog shows up different options ParaView is using. Let me know if this fixes the issue.

Thanks Mathieu, this is a good start. Could you add (to the same output window) the same information about client, server and renderserver (if they're involved). I'd also like to have a list of hostnames participating in the server(s) processes.

What I'm after is a convenient way to confirm that I'm getting all the connections and startup parameters I expect.

Some work will be done to have an improved 'vtkPVOptions' using XML configuration file. Thus it would make sense to wait until this is done properly to fix this bug.

Marking the bug as deferred.

Also provide a listing of what key libraries this executable was linked against (can be done using a configured header file and CMake) Would like to have listing of what runtime libs are actually used at runtime (ldd).

Want:
  run-time report of actually loaded shared libraries (ldd)
  Save report to file (for submission as error report)
  Make the report window bigger.
  Bigger text for geezers.
  In renderserver mode, don't list 'ServerHostName'
  Instead of 'localhost', report the actual name.
  Show render-data server connection direction (-r2d/-d2r)

You can now save the runtime information to a file.

GUI/Client/vtkPVApplication.cxx (rev. 1.332)
GUI/Client/vtkPVApplication.h (rev. 1.130)
GUI/Client/vtkPVApplicationResources.cxx (rev. 1.36)
GUI/Widgets/vtkKWApplication.cxx (rev. 1.181)

The direction of the connection between the data and render servers is now reported.

The font size of the runtime information is increased. The number of lines displayed had to be reduced slightly so that the About dialog box stayed within the bounds of a default-sized ParaView window.

The font size of the runtime information displayed in the About dialog box has been increased. The number of lines displayed has been decreased slightly so that the entire About dialog box fits within the bounds of a default-sized ParaView window.

The options listed in the runtime information are appropriate to the mode in which ParaView is running.
