Detailed Description

A class for performing multithreaded execution.

Multithreaders are a class hierarchy that provides support for multithreaded execution by abstracting away platform-specific details. This class can be used to execute a single method on multiple threads or to parallelize an operation over a given image region or array.

Member Function Documentation

static ThreadIdType itk::MultiThreaderBase::GetGlobalDefaultNumberOfThreads ( )
static

Set/Get the value which is used to initialize the NumberOfThreads in the constructor. It will be clamped to the range [1, m_GlobalMaximumNumberOfThreads ]. Therefore the caller of this method should check that the requested number of threads was accepted.

static ThreadIdType itk::MultiThreaderBase::GetGlobalDefaultNumberOfThreadsByPlatform ( )
staticprivate

Platform specific number of threads

static ThreaderType itk::MultiThreaderBase::GetGlobalDefaultThreader ( )
static

Set/Get whether the default multi-threader implementation.

The default multi-threader type is picked up from ITK_GLOBAL_DEFAULT_THREADER
environment variable. Example ITK_GLOBAL_DEFAULT_THREADER=TBB
A deprecated ITK_USE_THREADPOOL environment variable is also examined,
but it can only choose Pool or Platform multi-threader.
Platform multi-threader should be avoided,
as it introduces the biggest overhead.

If the SetGlobalDefaultThreaderType API is ever used by the developer,
the developer's choice is respected over the environment variables.  
static ThreadIdType itk::MultiThreaderBase::GetGlobalMaximumNumberOfThreads ( )
static

Set/Get the maximum number of threads to use when multithreading. It will be clamped to the range [ 1, ITK_MAX_THREADS ] because several arrays are already statically allocated using the ITK_MAX_THREADS number. Therefore the caller of this method should check that the requested number of threads was accepted.

virtual ThreadIdType itk::MultiThreaderBase::GetMaximumNumberOfThreads ( ) const
virtual

Get/Set the number of threads to use. It will be clamped to the range [ 1, m_GlobalMaximumNumberOfThreads ], so the caller of this method should check that the requested number of threads was accepted.

virtual const char* itk::MultiThreaderBase::GetNameOfClass ( ) const
virtual

Run-time type information (and related methods).

Reimplemented from itk::Object.

Reimplemented in itk::PoolMultiThreader, and itk::TBBMultiThreader.

virtual ThreadIdType itk::MultiThreaderBase::GetNumberOfWorkUnits ( ) const
virtual

Get/Set the number of work units to create. It might be clamped to the range [ 1, SomeMaximumNumber ], so the caller of this method should check that the requested number of work units was accepted.

static void itk::MultiThreaderBase::HandleFilterProgress ( ProcessObject filter,
float  progress = -1.0f 
)
static

Updates progress if progress is non-negative and checks for abort. If "abort generate data" is set, throws the ProcessAborted exception.

Referenced by ParallelizeImageRegionRestrictDirection().

itk::MultiThreaderBase::itkGetGlobalDeclarationMacro ( MultiThreaderBaseGlobals  ,
PimplGlobals   
)
private

Only used to synchronize the global variable across static libraries.

itk::MultiThreaderBase::itkLegacyMacro ( static void   SetGlobalDefaultUseThreadPoolconst bool GlobalDefaultUseThreadPool)

Set/Get whether to use the to use the thread pool implementation or the spawing implementation of starting threads.

Deprecated: use Get/Set GlobalDefaultThreader.

itk::MultiThreaderBase::itkLegacyMacro ( static bool   GetGlobalDefaultUseThreadPool())

Set/Get whether to use the to use the thread pool implementation or the spawing implementation of starting threads.

Deprecated: use Get/Set GlobalDefaultThreader.

static
virtual void itk::MultiThreaderBase::ParallelizeArray ( SizeValueType  firstIndex,
SizeValueType  lastIndexPlus1,
ArrayThreadingFunctorType  aFunc,
ProcessObject filter 
)
virtual

Parallelize an operation over an array. If filter argument is not nullptr, this function will update its progress as each index is completed.

This implementation simply delegates parallelization to the old interface SetSingleMethod+SingleMethodExecute. This method is meant to be overloaded!

Reimplemented in itk::PoolMultiThreader, and itk::TBBMultiThreader.

static ITK_THREAD_RETURN_FUNCTION_CALL_CONVENTION itk::MultiThreaderBase::ParallelizeArrayHelper ( void *  arg)
staticprotected

The number of work units to create.

template<unsigned int VDimension>
ITK_TEMPLATE_EXPORT void itk::MultiThreaderBase::ParallelizeImageRegion ( const ImageRegion< VDimension > &  requestedRegion,
TemplatedThreadingFunctorType< VDimension >  funcP,
ProcessObject filter 
)
inline

Break up region into smaller chunks, and call the function with chunks as parameters. If filter argument is not nullptr, this function will update its progress as each work unit is completed. Delegates work to non-templated version.

virtual void itk::MultiThreaderBase::ParallelizeImageRegion ( unsigned int  dimension,
const IndexValueType  index[],
const SizeValueType  size[],
ThreadingFunctorType  funcP,
ProcessObject filter 
)
virtual

Break up region into smaller chunks, and call the function with chunks as parameters. This overload does the actual work and should be implemented by derived classes.

Reimplemented in itk::PoolMultiThreader, and itk::TBBMultiThreader.

static ITK_THREAD_RETURN_FUNCTION_CALL_CONVENTION itk::MultiThreaderBase::ParallelizeImageRegionHelper ( void *  arg)
staticprotected

The number of work units to create.

template<unsigned int VDimension>
ITK_TEMPLATE_EXPORT void itk::MultiThreaderBase::ParallelizeImageRegionRestrictDirection ( unsigned int  restrictedDirection,
const ImageRegion< VDimension > &  requestedRegion,
TemplatedThreadingFunctorType< VDimension >  funcP,
ProcessObject filter 
)
inline

Similar to ParallelizeImageRegion, but do not split the region along one of the directions. If VDimension is 1, restrictedDirection is ignored and no parallelization occurs.

Set/Get whether the default multi-threader implementation.

The default multi-threader type is picked up from ITK_GLOBAL_DEFAULT_THREADER
environment variable. Example ITK_GLOBAL_DEFAULT_THREADER=TBB
A deprecated ITK_USE_THREADPOOL environment variable is also examined,

static void itk::MultiThreaderBase::SetGlobalMaximumNumberOfThreads ( ThreadIdType  val)

Set/Get the maximum number of threads to use when multithreading. It will be clamped to the range [ 1, ITK_MAX_THREADS ] because several arrays are already statically allocated using the ITK_MAX_THREADS number. Therefore the caller of this method should check that the requested number of threads was accepted.

virtual void itk::MultiThreaderBase::SetMaximumNumberOfThreads ( ThreadIdType  numberOfThreads)

Get/Set the number of threads to use. It will be clamped to the range [ 1, m_GlobalMaximumNumberOfThreads ], so the caller of this method should check that the requested number of threads was accepted.

Reimplemented in itk::PoolMultiThreader.

virtual void itk::MultiThreaderBase::SetNumberOfWorkUnits ( ThreadIdType  numberOfWorkUnits)
virtual

Get/Set the number of work units to create. It might be clamped to the range [ 1, SomeMaximumNumber ], so the caller of this method should check that the requested number of work units was accepted.

virtual void itk::MultiThreaderBase::SetSingleMethod ( ThreadFunctionType  ,
void *  data 
)
pure virtual

Set the SingleMethod to f() and the UserData field of the WorkUnitInfo that is passed to it will be data. This method must be of type itkThreadFunctionType and must take a single argument of type void *.

Implemented in itk::PoolMultiThreader, and itk::TBBMultiThreader.

virtual void itk::MultiThreaderBase::SingleMethodExecute ( )
pure virtual

Execute the SingleMethod (as define by SetSingleMethod) using m_NumberOfWorkUnits threads. As a side effect the m_NumberOfWorkUnits will be checked against the current m_GlobalMaximumNumberOfThreads and clamped if necessary.

Implemented in itk::PoolMultiThreader, and itk::TBBMultiThreader.

static ITK_THREAD_RETURN_FUNCTION_CALL_CONVENTION itk::MultiThreaderBase::SingleMethodProxy ( void *  arg)
staticprotected

Static function used as a "proxy callback" by multi-threaders. The threading library will call this routine for each thread, which will delegate the control to the prescribed SingleMethod. This routine acts as an intermediary between the multi-threaders and the user supplied callback (SingleMethod) in order to catch any exceptions thrown by the threads.

static ThreaderType itk::MultiThreaderBase::ThreaderTypeFromString ( std::string  threaderString)
static

Convert a threader name into its enum type.
