0010861: Data members in vtkPolyDataConnectivityFilter should be protected, not private
A lot of the fields used internally in vtkPolyDataConnectivityFilter are private:

private:
  // used to support algorithm execution
  vtkDataArray *CellScalars;
  vtkIdList *NeighborCellPointIds;
  vtkIdType *Visited;
  vtkIdType *PointMap;
  vtkDataArray *NewScalars;
  vtkIdType RegionNumber;
  vtkIdType PointNumber;
  vtkIdType NumCellsInRegion;
  vtkDataArray *InScalars;
  vtkPolyData *Mesh;
  vtkIdList *Wave;
  vtkIdList *Wave2;
  vtkIdList *PointIds;
  vtkIdList *CellIds;

Unfortunately, this is problematic when trying to extend the class, I have to copy it completely instead of simply deriving from it.
No tags attached.

Quick question to the VTK devs: why does a seemingly minor and easily solvable issue like this one take more than two years to solve?

This isn't the first time I've had my bug reports ignored in Kitware projects. In fact, I've never had a bug processed and fixed quickly, even though my reports were simple with an easy fix.

My question is: why have an open, public, bug tracker if you're going to ignore bug reports? Should I bother for future bugs?

Looks like it has been fixed in commit 710a8c92e2430a9b0d77cd1940bd0655a1b86144
