// .NAME vtkPolyDataToPolyDataFilter - abstract filter class
// .SECTION Description
// vtkPolyDataToPolyDataFilter is an abstract filter class whose subclasses
// take as input polygonal data and generate polygonal data on output.
// .SECTION Warning
// This used to be the parent class for most polydata filter in VTK4.x, now 
// this role has been replaced by vtkPolyDataAlgorithm. You should consider
// using vtkPolyDataAlgorithm instead of this class, 
// when writing filter for VTK5 and above.
// This class was kept to ensure full backward compatibility.
