ITK: itk::MetaDataObjectBase Class Reference

Create an object from an instance, potentially deferring to a factory. This method allows you to create an instance of an object that is exactly the same type as the referring object. This is useful in cases where an object has been cast back to a base class.

Reimplemented in itk::Object.

virtual void itk::LightObject::Delete ( ) [virtual, inherited]

Delete an itk object. This method should always be used to delete an object when the new operator was used to create it. Using the C delete method will not work with reference counting.

virtual const std::type_info& itk::MetaDataObjectBase::GetMetaDataObjectTypeInfo ( void ) const [virtual]

Author:: Hans J. Johnson

Returns:: A constant reference to a std::type_info object

Reimplemented in itk::MetaDataObject< MetaDataObjectType >.

virtual const char* itk::MetaDataObjectBase::GetMetaDataObjectTypeName ( void ) const [virtual]

Author:: Hans J. Johnson

Returns:: A pointer to a const char array containing the unique type name.

Reimplemented in itk::MetaDataObject< MetaDataObjectType >.

virtual const char* itk::MetaDataObjectBase::GetNameOfClass ( ) const [virtual]

Run-time type information (and related methods).

Reimplemented from itk::LightObject.

Reimplemented in itk::MetaDataObject< MetaDataObjectType >.

virtual int itk::LightObject::GetReferenceCount ( ) const [inline, virtual, inherited]

Gets the reference count on this object.

Definition at line 98 of file itkLightObject.h.

static Pointer itk::LightObject::New ( ) [static, inherited]

Method for creation through the object factory.

void itk::LightObject::Print	(	std::ostream &	os,
		Indent	indent = `0`
	)			const `[inherited]`

Cause the object to print itself out.

Referenced by itk::WeakPointer< itk::ProcessObject >::Print().

virtual void itk::MetaDataObjectBase::Print ( std::ostream & os ) const [virtual]

Defines the default behavior for printing out this element

Parameters:

os

An output stream

Reimplemented in itk::MetaDataObject< MetaDataObjectType >.

virtual void itk::LightObject::PrintHeader	(	std::ostream &	os,
		Indent	indent
	)			const `[protected, virtual, inherited]`

virtual void itk::LightObject::PrintSelf	(	std::ostream &	os,
		Indent	indent
	)			const `[protected, virtual, inherited]`

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.

virtual void itk::LightObject::PrintTrailer	(	std::ostream &	os,
		Indent	indent
	)			const `[protected, virtual, inherited]`

virtual void itk::LightObject::Register ( ) const [virtual, inherited]

Increase the reference count (mark as used by another object).

Reimplemented in itk::Object.

virtual void itk::LightObject::SetReferenceCount ( int ) [virtual, inherited]

Sets the reference count on this object. This is a dangerous method, use it with care.

Reimplemented in itk::Object.

virtual void itk::LightObject::UnRegister ( ) const [virtual, inherited]

Decrease the reference count (release by another object).

Reimplemented in itk::Object.

volatile int itk::LightObject::m_ReferenceCount [mutable, protected, inherited]

Number of uses of this object by other objects.

Definition at line 119 of file itkLightObject.h.

SimpleFastMutexLock itk::LightObject::m_ReferenceCountLock [mutable, protected, inherited]

Mutex lock to protect modification to the reference count
