Detailed Description

template<typename TElementIdentifier, typename TElement>
class itk::ImageContainerInterface< TElementIdentifier, TElement >

Used for reference when writing containers conforming to this interface.

This should only be used for reference when writing containers conforming to this interface. ITK uses generic programming to allow container type substitution, so polymorphism is not needed to use containers through this interface. This means that a container conforming to this interface need not be derived from it, and that their methods should not be virtual. However, the container must derive from Object in order to support the reference counting, modification time, and debug information required by this interface.

Note that many comments refer to a "default element" or "default element value". This value is equal to the default constructor of the Element type. Also note that all non-const methods assume that the container was modified, and update the modification time.

Template Parameters:

TElementIdentifier	A type that shall be used to index the container. It must have a < operator defined for ordering.
TElement	The element type stored in the container.

Member Function Documentation

template<typename TElementIdentifier , typename TElement >

virtual TElement* itk::ImageContainerInterface< TElementIdentifier, TElement >::GetBufferPointer

(

)

[pure virtual]

Return a pointer to the beginning of the buffer. This is used by the image iterator class.

template<typename TElementIdentifier , typename TElement >

virtual const char* itk::ImageContainerInterface< TElementIdentifier, TElement >::GetNameOfClass

(

)

const [virtual]

Standard part of every itk Object.

Reimplemented from itk::Object.

template<typename TElementIdentifier , typename TElement >

virtual TElement& itk::ImageContainerInterface< TElementIdentifier, TElement >::operator[]

(

const ElementIdentifier

)

[pure virtual]

Index operator. This version can be an lvalue.

template<typename TElementIdentifier , typename TElement >

virtual const TElement& itk::ImageContainerInterface< TElementIdentifier, TElement >::operator[]

(

const ElementIdentifier

)

const [pure virtual]

Index operator. This version can only be an rvalue

template<typename TElementIdentifier , typename TElement >

virtual void itk::ImageContainerInterface< TElementIdentifier, TElement >::Reserve

(

ElementIdentifier

)

[pure virtual]

Tell the container to allocate enough memory to allow at least as many elements as the size given to be stored. This is NOT guaranteed to actually allocate any memory, but is useful if the implementation of the container allocates contiguous storage.

template<typename TElementIdentifier , typename TElement >

virtual ElementIdentifier itk::ImageContainerInterface< TElementIdentifier, TElement >::Size

(

void

)

const [pure virtual]

Get the number of elements currently stored in the container.

template<typename TElementIdentifier , typename TElement >

virtual void itk::ImageContainerInterface< TElementIdentifier, TElement >::Squeeze

(

void

)

[pure virtual]

Tell the container to try to minimize its memory usage for storage of the current number of elements. This is NOT guaranteed to decrease memory usage.
