[aowen87]

cqid: VisIt00007307cqsubmitter: Mark Millercqsubmitdate: 06/28/06 The fact that Silo doesn't really capture knowledge of vector/tensor variables is well know. There is something simple we can do with optlist options to correct this and that is to add a DBOPT_VARTYPE option to all of Silo's DBPutXXXvar calls making the variable's type explicit.
