<br>
When I use vtkGenericDataObjectReader (or any other reader), how can I<br>
check if the file I'm opening is a proper file?<br>
<br>
Method SetFileName() runs just fine, but then when I call Update() or<br>
GetOutput() it prints a bunch of errors (on Windows it's even worse,<br>
because it creates a separate window for them).<br>
<br>
So how can I check if user chose a valid VTK file?<br>
<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
