// This filter can be attached to any filter/source/reader that supports time.
// vtkTimeToTextConvertor will generate a 1x1 vtkTable with the string
// for the data time using the format specified.
// The input to this filter is optional. If no input is specified, it will show
// produce request time in the output.
