Detailed Description

Create instances of classes using an object factory.

ObjectFactoryBase is used to create itk objects. The base class ObjectFactoryBase contains a static method CreateInstance() that is used to create itk objects from the list of registerd ObjectFactoryBase sub-classes. The first time CreateInstance() is called, all dll's or shared libraries in the environment variable ITK_AUTOLOAD_PATH are loaded into the current process. The C function itkLoad is called on each dll. itkLoad should return an instance of the factory sub-class implemented in the shared library. ITK_AUTOLOAD_PATH is an environment variable containing a colon separated (semi-colon on win32) list of paths.

This can be use to override the creation of any object in ITK.

Member Function Documentation

◆ CreateAllInstance()

static std::list<LightObject::Pointer> itk::ObjectFactoryBase::CreateAllInstance ( const char *  itkclassname)
static

Create and return all possible instances of the named itk object. Each loaded ObjectFactoryBase will be asked in the order the factory was in the ITK_AUTOLOAD_PATH. All created objects will be returned in the list.

Examples
SphinxExamples/src/IO/ImageBase/RegisterIOFactories/Code.cxx.

◆ CreateAllObject()

virtual std::list<LightObject::Pointer> itk::ObjectFactoryBase::CreateAllObject ( const char *  itkclassname)
protectedvirtual

This method creates all the objects with the class override of itkclass name, which are provide by this object

◆ CreateInstance()

static LightObject::Pointer itk::ObjectFactoryBase::CreateInstance ( const char *  itkclassname)
static

Create and return an instance of the named itk object. Each loaded ObjectFactoryBase will be asked in the order the factory was in the ITK_AUTOLOAD_PATH. After the first factory returns the object no other factories are asked.

Referenced by itk::ObjectFactory< T >::Create(), and itk::TransformFactoryBase::RegisterTransform().

◆ CreateObject()

virtual LightObject::Pointer itk::ObjectFactoryBase::CreateObject ( const char *  itkclassname)
protectedvirtual

This method is provided by sub-classes of ObjectFactoryBase. It should create the named itk object or return 0 if that object is not supported by the factory implementation.

◆ DeleteNonInternalFactory()

static void itk::ObjectFactoryBase::DeleteNonInternalFactory ( ObjectFactoryBase )
staticprivate

Member variables for a factory set by the base class at load or register time

◆ Disable()

virtual void itk::ObjectFactoryBase::Disable ( const char *  className)
virtual

Set all enable flags for the given class to 0. This will mean that the factory will stop producing class with the given name.

◆ GetClassOverrideDescriptions()

virtual std::list<std::string> itk::ObjectFactoryBase::GetClassOverrideDescriptions ( )
virtual

Return a list of descriptions for class overrides.

◆ GetClassOverrideNames()

virtual std::list<std::string> itk::ObjectFactoryBase::GetClassOverrideNames ( )
virtual

Return a list of classes that this factory overrides.

◆ GetClassOverrideWithNames()

virtual std::list<std::string> itk::ObjectFactoryBase::GetClassOverrideWithNames ( )
virtual

Return a list of the names of classes that override classes.

◆ GetDescription()

virtual const char* itk::ObjectFactoryBase::GetDescription ( ) const
pure virtual

◆ GetEnableFlag()

virtual bool itk::ObjectFactoryBase::GetEnableFlag ( const char *  className,
const char *  subclassName 
)
virtual

Get the Enable flag for the specific override of className.

◆ GetEnableFlags()

virtual std::list<bool> itk::ObjectFactoryBase::GetEnableFlags ( )
virtual

Return a list of enable flags.

◆ GetITKSourceVersion()

virtual const char* itk::ObjectFactoryBase::GetITKSourceVersion ( ) const
pure virtual

All sub-classes of ObjectFactoryBase should must return the version of ITK they were built with. This should be implemented with the macro ITK_SOURCE_VERSION and NOT a call to Version::GetITKSourceVersion. As the version needs to be compiled into the file as a string constant. This is critical to determine possible incompatible dynamic factory loads.

Implemented in itk::GPUImageFactory, itk::RawImageIOFactory< TPixel, VImageDimension >, itk::GPUBinaryThresholdImageFilterFactory, itk::GPUDemonsRegistrationFilterFactory, itk::GPUMeanImageFilterFactory, itk::MRCImageIOFactory, itk::JPEG2000ImageIOFactory, itk::SpatialObjectFactoryBase, itk::VTKImageIOFactory, itk::BioRadImageIOFactory, itk::LSMImageIOFactory, itk::MINCImageIOFactory, itk::StimulateImageIOFactory, itk::TransformFactoryBase, itk::Bruker2dseqImageIOFactory, itk::VoxBoCUBImageIOFactory, itk::HDF5ImageIOFactory, itk::JPEGImageIOFactory, itk::NiftiImageIOFactory, itk::PNGImageIOFactory, itk::TIFFImageIOFactory, itk::GE4ImageIOFactory, itk::GE5ImageIOFactory, itk::GEAdwImageIOFactory, itk::SiemensVisionImageIOFactory, itk::FileListVideoIOFactory, itk::BMPImageIOFactory, itk::GDCMImageIOFactory, itk::GiplImageIOFactory, itk::BYUMeshIOFactory, itk::OBJMeshIOFactory, itk::OFFMeshIOFactory, itk::VTKPolyDataMeshIOFactory, itk::MetaImageIOFactory, itk::NrrdImageIOFactory, itk::DCMTKImageIOFactory, itk::HDF5TransformIOFactory, itk::MatlabTransformIOFactory, itk::VXLVideoIOFactory, itk::FreeSurferAsciiMeshIOFactory, itk::FreeSurferBinaryMeshIOFactory, itk::GiftiMeshIOFactory, itk::GPUGradientAnisotropicDiffusionImageFilterFactory, itk::TxtTransformIOFactory, and itk::OpenCVVideoIOFactory.

◆ RegisterFactory()

static bool itk::ObjectFactoryBase::RegisterFactory ( ObjectFactoryBase ,
InsertionPositionEnum  where = InsertionPositionEnum::INSERT_AT_BACK,
vcl_size_t  position = 0 
)
static

Register a factory so it can be used to create itk objects.

When InsertionPositionEnum::INSERT_AT_POSITION is selected, a third argument must be provided
with the actual integer number of the intended position. The position
number must be in the range [0, numberOfRegisteredFactories-1].

Usage should be any of the following:

itk::ObjectFactoryBase::RegisterFactory( newFactory1 ); // at back
itk::ObjectFactoryBase::RegisterFactory( newFactory2, InsertionPositionEnum::INSERT_AT_FRONT );
itk::ObjectFactoryBase::RegisterFactory( newFactory3, InsertionPositionEnum::INSERT_AT_BACK );
itk::ObjectFactoryBase::RegisterFactory( newFactory4, InsertionPositionEnum::INSERT_AT_POSITION, 5 );

If the position value is out of range, an exception will be
thrown.
Returns true if the factory was successfully registered.
Returns false if factory is already loaded.

Referenced by itk::TransformFactoryBase::RegisterTransform().

◆ ReHash()
