Silo-devel Subpackage of Silo

Silo is a C/Fortran API for reading and writing a wide variety of scientific data to binary files. Silo files can be easily shared and exchanged between wholly independently developed applications running on disparate computing platforms. Consequently, Silo facilitates the development of general purpose tools for processing scientific data. One of the more popular tools to process Silo data is the VisIt visualization tool. Silo supports a variety of mesh types including simple curves, gridless (point), structured, unstructured-zoo and unstructured-arbitrary, block structured AMR, and constructive solid geometry (CSG). This package contains the development files of Silo.
