Maria,
After seeing Frank's email that CarpetHDF5 reading is now integrated into Visit 2.6, I downloaded the Mac binary for 2.6 and found that it works -- I can read Carpet HDF5 data without doing anything special. And no need to compile Visit from source. :-)
I still, however, find it necessary to start VisIt from the command line with the "-noconfig" flag, because I can't seem to get it to properly use "localhost" as a host on the Mac.
e.g. I run this... % /Applications/VisIt.app/Contents/Resources/bin/visit -noconfig
...and I haven't bothered trying to get parallel-rendering working yet.
Cheers, Scott
Hello,
the VisIt 2.6.2 binary for Mac OS X also comes already parallelized, which is awesome, because installing VisIt from source was a major pain...
just start VisIt with ./Visit -np # where # is the number of cores you want to use..
best wishes,
Vassili
