Hello dear ParaView developers!

I want to add a function which receives an array of data from the server. For that I want to add a function to my filter, which returns std::vector of ints

However, it does not seem to be wrapped and does not appear in SM module

So I have two questions

1. Which functions are wrapped? (only inputting/outputting elementary types?)
2. How do I get certain data from server, what could be the best solution?

Thanks

Indeed, you should use supported types, in that case, vtkStringArray.

See vtkNetCDFReader for an example.
