Detailed Description

Create instances of classes using an object factory.

ObjectFactoryBase is used to create itk objects. The base class ObjectFactoryBase contains a static method CreateInstance() that is used to create itk objects from the list of registerd ObjectFactoryBase sub-classes. The first time CreateInstance() is called, all dll's or shared libraries in the environment variable ITK_AUTOLOAD_PATH are loaded into the current process. The C function itkLoad is called on each dll. itkLoad should return an instance of the factory sub-class implemented in the shared library. ITK_AUTOLOAD_PATH is an environment variable containing a colon separated (semi-colon on win32) list of paths.

This can be use to overide the creation of any object in ITK.

static LightObject::Pointer itk::ObjectFactoryBase::CreateInstance ( const char *  itkclassname )

virtual

Return a list of enable flags.

virtual const char* itk::ObjectFactoryBase::GetITKSourceVersion ( void  ) const

pure virtual

All sub-classes of ObjectFactoryBase should must return the version of ITK they were built with. This should be implemented with the macro ITK_SOURCE_VERSION and NOT a call to Version::GetITKSourceVersion. As the version needs to be compiled into the file as a string constant. This is critical to determine possible incompatible dynamic factory loads.

Implemented in itk::GPUImageFactory, itk::GPUDemonsRegistrationFilterFactory, itk::RawImageIOFactory< TPixel, VImageDimension >, itk::GPUBinaryThresholdImageFilterFactory, itk::GPUMeanImageFilterFactory, itk::GPUGradientAnisotropicDiffusionImageFilterFactory, itk::MRCImageIOFactory, itk::FEMFactoryBase, itk::JPEG2000ImageIOFactory, itk::SpatialObjectFactoryBase, itk::VTKImageIOFactory, itk::TransformFactoryBase, itk::BioRadImageIOFactory, itk::LSMImageIOFactory, itk::StimulateImageIOFactory, itk::MINCImageIOFactory, itk::Bruker2dseqImageIOFactory, itk::VoxBoCUBImageIOFactory, itk::DCMTKTransformIOFactory, itk::HDF5ImageIOFactory, itk::AnalyzeObjectLabelMapImageIOFactory, itk::STLMeshIOFactory, itk::JPEGImageIOFactory, itk::NiftiImageIOFactory, itk::PNGImageIOFactory, itk::TIFFImageIOFactory, itk::GE4ImageIOFactory, itk::GE5ImageIOFactory, itk::GEAdwImageIOFactory, itk::SiemensVisionImageIOFactory, itk::HDF5TransformIOFactory, itk::MatlabTransformIOFactory, itk::FileListVideoIOFactory, itk::OpenCVVideoIOFactory, itk::MGHImageIOFactory, itk::BMPImageIOFactory, itk::GDCMImageIOFactory, itk::GiplImageIOFactory, itk::MetaImageIOFactory, itk::NrrdImageIOFactory, itk::BYUMeshIOFactory, itk::FreeSurferAsciiMeshIOFactory, itk::FreeSurferBinaryMeshIOFactory, itk::GiftiMeshIOFactory, itk::OBJMeshIOFactory, itk::OFFMeshIOFactory, itk::VTKPolyDataMeshIOFactory, itk::DCMTKImageIOFactory, itk::TxtTransformIOFactory, itk::VXLVideoIOFactory, and itk::SCIFIOImageIOFactory.

static ObjectFactoryBasePrivate* itk::ObjectFactoryBase::GetObjectFactoryBase ( )

static

Set/Get the pointer to ObjectFactoryBasePrivate. Note that these functions are not part of the public API and should not be used outside of ITK. They are an implementation detail and will be removed in the future. Also note that SetObjectFactoryBasePrivate is not concurrent thread safe.

static std::list< ObjectFactoryBase * > itk::ObjectFactoryBase::GetRegisteredFactories ( )

static

Return the list of all registered factories. This is NOT a copy, do not remove items from this list!

Examples:

Examples/IO/IOFactoryRegistration.cxx, and Examples/IO/IOPlugin.cxx.

static bool itk::ObjectFactoryBase::GetStrictVersionChecking ( )

static

Require the ITK version of this application to exactly match the ITK version used to compile a dynamic library. When this is set to true, if the versions do not match, an exception will be thrown. When this is false, and the versions do not match, only a warning message is printed out in the console, and the factory is still registered.

static void itk::ObjectFactoryBase::Initialize ( )

staticprivate

Load dynamic factories from the ITK_AUTOLOAD_PATH

static void itk::ObjectFactoryBase::LoadLibrariesInPath ( const char *  )

staticprivate

virtual void itk::ObjectFactoryBase::PrintSelf ( std::ostream &  os, Indent  indent  ) const

overrideprotectedvirtual

Methods invoked by Print() to print information about the object including superclasses. Typically not called by the user (use Print() instead) but used in the hierarchical print process to combine the output of several classes.

Reimplemented from itk::Object.

Reimplemented in itk::DCMTKTransformIOFactory, itk::STLMeshIOFactory, itk::HDF5ImageIOFactory, itk::AnalyzeObjectLabelMapImageIOFactory, itk::MatlabTransformIOFactory, itk::NiftiImageIOFactory, itk::BYUMeshIOFactory, itk::FreeSurferAsciiMeshIOFactory, itk::FreeSurferBinaryMeshIOFactory, itk::GiftiMeshIOFactory, itk::OBJMeshIOFactory, itk::OFFMeshIOFactory, itk::VTKPolyDataMeshIOFactory, itk::GE4ImageIOFactory, itk::GE5ImageIOFactory, itk::GEAdwImageIOFactory, itk::SiemensVisionImageIOFactory, itk::HDF5TransformIOFactory, itk::MGHImageIOFactory, and itk::TxtTransformIOFactory.

static bool itk::ObjectFactoryBase::RegisterFactory ( ObjectFactoryBase *  , InsertionPositionType  where = INSERT_AT_BACK, vcl_size_t  position = 0  )

static

Register a factory so it can be used to create itk objects.

When INSERT_AT_POSITION is selected, a third argument must be provided
with the actual integer number of the intended position. The position
number must be in the range [0, numberOfRegisteredFactories-1].

Usage should be any of the following:

itk::ObjectFactoryBase::RegisterFactory( newFactory1 ); // at back
itk::ObjectFactoryBase::RegisterFactory( newFactory2, INSERT_AT_FRONT );
itk::ObjectFactoryBase::RegisterFactory( newFactory3, INSERT_AT_BACK );
itk::ObjectFactoryBase::RegisterFactory( newFactory4, INSERT_AT_POSITION, 5 );

If the position value is out of range, an exception will be
thrown.
Returns true if the factory was successfully registered.
Returns false if factory is already loaded.

static void itk::ObjectFactoryBase::RegisterFactoryInternal ( ObjectFactoryBase *  )

static

Register a factory so it can be used to create itk objects. This method is intended to be called only for built-in default factories, not for loadable factories.

Factories that are registered with this method will be regisistered after ReHash.
