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.

Member Function Documentation

◆ AddObserver() [1/3]

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

Add an observer/command to this object invoked for event.

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.

◆ AddObserver() [2/3]

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

◆ AddObserver() [3/3]

unsigned long itk::Object::AddObserver	(	const EventObject &	event,
		std::function< void(const EventObject &)>	function
	)		const

A convenient method to add an C++ lambda function as an observer.

A FunctionCommand object in implicitly create to hold function, and passed to this object as a standard observer. The command will be invoked for the specified event.

The function or lambda cannot captured this object as SmartPoint because a circular dependency is generated which causing memory leaks. Sample usage:

auto &objRef = *o.GetPointer();
o->AddObserver(itk::AnyEvent(), [&objRef](const itk::EventObject &event)
{ std::cout << "Object: " << objRef.GetNameOfClass() << " Event: " << event << std::endl; });

◆ CreateAnother()

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.

◆ DebugOff()

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

virtual

Turn debugging output off.

◆ DebugOn()

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

virtual

Turn debugging output on.

◆ GetCommand()

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.

◆ GetDebug()

bool itk::Object::GetDebug ( ) const

Get the value of the debug flag.

◆ GetGlobalWarningDisplay()

static bool itk::Object::GetGlobalWarningDisplay ( )

static

◆ GetMetaDataDictionary() [1/2]

◆ GetNameOfClass()

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

virtual

◆ GetObjectName()

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