Detailed Description

Base class for most ITK classes.

Object is the second-highest level base class for most itk objects. It extends the base object functionality of LightObject by implementing callbacks (via object/observer), debug flags/methods, and modification time tracking. Most ITK classes should be a subclass of Object due to the need to keep track of modified time.

unsigned long itk::Object::AddObserver	(	const EventObject &	event,
		Command *
	)

Allow people to add/remove/invoke observers (callbacks) to any ITK object. This is an implementation of the subject/observer design pattern. An observer is added by specifying an event to respond to and an itk::Command to execute. It returns an unsigned long tag which can be used later to remove the event or retrieve the command. The memory for the Command becomes the responsibility of this object, so don't pass the same instance of a command to two different objects

unsigned long itk::Object::AddObserver	(	const EventObject &	event,
		Command *
	)		const

LightObject::Pointer itk::Object::CreateAnother ( ) const

overridevirtual

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 from itk::LightObject.

virtual void itk::Object::DebugOff ( ) const

virtual

Turn debugging output off.

virtual void itk::Object::DebugOn ( ) const

virtual

Turn debugging output on.

Command* itk::Object::GetCommand ( unsigned long tag )

Get the command associated with the given tag. NOTE: This returns a pointer to a Command, but it is safe to assign this to a Command::Pointer. Since Command inherits from LightObject, at this point in the code, only a pointer or a reference to the Command can be used.

bool itk::Object::GetDebug ( ) const

Get the value of the debug flag.

static bool itk::Object::GetGlobalWarningDisplay ( )

static

MetaDataDictionary& itk::Object::GetMetaDataDictionary ( )

Returns: A reference to this objects MetaDataDictionary.

Warning: This reference may be changed.

const MetaDataDictionary& itk::Object::GetMetaDataDictionary ( ) const

Returns: A constant reference to this objects MetaDataDictionary.

virtual ModifiedTimeType itk::Object::GetMTime ( ) const

virtual

Return this object's modified time.

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

virtual

Standard part of all itk objects.

Reimplemented from itk::LightObject.

Examples:: Examples/RegistrationITKv4/MultiStageImageRegistration2.cxx.

virtual const std::string& itk::Object::GetObjectName ( ) const

virtual

A facility to help application programmers set a human identifiable name for a given object. This has no inherent use in ITK, but is a convenience to allow developers to provide a name for this object.

Examples:: Examples/RegistrationITKv4/MultiStageImageRegistration1.cxx, and Examples/RegistrationITKv4/MultiStageImageRegistration2.cxx.

virtual const TimeStamp& itk::Object::GetTimeStamp ( ) const

virtual

Return this object's time stamp.

Reimplemented in itk::RealTimeClock.

bool itk::Object::HasObserver ( const EventObject & event ) const

Return true if an observer is registered for this event.

void itk::Object::InvokeEvent ( const EventObject & )

Call Execute on all the Commands observing this event id.

void itk::Object::InvokeEvent ( const EventObject & ) const

Call Execute on all the Commands observing this event id. The actions triggered by this call doesn't modify this object.

itk::Object::itkGetGlobalDeclarationMacro	(	bool	,
		GlobalWarningDisplay
	)

private

Only used to synchronize the global variable across static libraries.

virtual void itk::Object::Modified ( ) const

virtual

Update the modification time for this object. Many filters rely on the modification time to determine if they need to recompute their data.

static Pointer itk::Object::New ( )

static

Method for creation through the object factory.

bool itk::Object::PrintObservers	(	std::ostream &	os,
		Indent	indent
	)		const

protected

void itk::Object::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::LightObject.

Referenced by itk::KernelFunctionBase< double >::PrintSelf(), itk::OptimizerParameterScalesEstimatorTemplate< TMetric::ParametersValueType >::PrintSelf(), itk::QuadEdgeMeshDecimationCriterion< TMesh, TElement, TMeasure, TPriorityQueueWrapper >::PrintSelf(), itk::TransformParametersAdaptorBase< Transform< TTransform::ScalarType, TTransform::InputSpaceDimension, TTransform::OutputSpaceDimension > >::PrintSelf(), itk::Function::ConvergenceMonitoringFunction< TScalar, TScalar >::PrintSelf(), itk::Function::ColormapFunction< TScalar, TRGBPixel >::PrintSelf(), and itk::ValarrayImageContainer< TElementIdentifier, TElement >::PrintSelf().

void itk::Object::Register ( ) const

overridevirtual

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

Reimplemented from itk::LightObject.

Referenced by itk::ScanlineFilterCommon< TInputImage, TOutputImage >::Register().

void itk::Object::RemoveAllObservers ( )

Remove all observers .

void itk::Object::RemoveObserver ( unsigned long tag )

Remove the observer with this tag value.

void itk::Object::SetDebug ( bool debugFlag ) const

Set the value of the debug flag. A non-zero value turns debugging on.

static void itk::Object::SetGlobalWarningDisplay ( bool flag )

static

This is a global flag that controls whether any debug, warning or error messages are displayed.

void itk::Object::SetMetaDataDictionary ( const MetaDataDictionary & rhs )

Set the MetaDataDictionary

void itk::Object::SetMetaDataDictionary ( MetaDataDictionary && rrhs )

Set the MetaDataDictionary

virtual void itk::Object::SetObjectName ( std::string _arg )

virtual

A facility to help application programmers set a human identifiable name for a given object. This has no inherent use in ITK, but is a convenience to allow developers to provide a name for this object.

void itk::Object::SetReferenceCount ( int )

overridevirtual

Sets the reference count (use with care)

Reimplemented from itk::LightObject.

virtual void itk::Object::SetTimeStamp ( const TimeStamp & time )

protectedvirtual

Set the time stamp of this object. This method must be used very carefully !!!. Most mortals will never need to call this method.

void itk::Object::UnRegister ( ) const

overridevirtualnoexcept

Decrease the reference count (release by another object).

Reimplemented from itk::LightObject.

Referenced by itk::ScanlineFilterCommon< TInputImage, TOutputImage >::UnRegister().
