  • Checklist
  • Process
• Target: June Meeting
• Review Directory: hackathon
  • All files were classified
  • https://spreadsheets.google.com/a/kitware.com/ccc?key=0ApfVzIsZe0VFdFUxdE95WE5kMVE4LTJ6b3ZYQnpRalE&hl=en&authkey=CMyS68EE#gid=0
  • Missing Insight Journal references were added
  • Now: Select the ones that must be moved into the toolkit
• Finally: We will move the remaining Review directory out of the toolkit and into an external module.

ITK Modularization Residuals

• Check the TODO list file

• • • Enabling Examples (DONE)
    • Doxygen documentation (DONE)
    • KWStyle configuration (DONE)
  • http://kwsource.kitwarein.com/itk/itk/blobs/master/TODO-Modularization.txt
    • Installation ?
    • Wiki Documentation

• Use Cases

Wrapping and TCL

• discussion between hans and the wrapping team (gaetan, ashish, and alex)
• it has been decided (upon approval during the tconf) that
  • killing tcl wrapping is a little bit brutal as it is almost there
  • fixing tcl wrapping is NOT a priority for the beta
  • we can "hide" the tcl wrapping for the time being to avoid having people wasting their time trying to use it
  • for people knowledgeable in cmake enough to find the option and turn it on, print a warning message (a la review dir)
  • toward september/october, when things will be more stable, fix the tcl wrapping.
• WrapITK updates:
  • Cleaned up python wrapping's CMakeLists.txt.
  • swig customizations for python have been moved to pybase.i

Dashboard

Monolithic Dashboard

• Dashboard Status - Today's Dashboard

Modular Dashboard

• http://www.cdash.org/CDash/index.php?project=ITKModular

NOTE: The Dashboard database has been moved to a separate machine (not the virtual cluster yet), this has improved the response time. Please give it a try. It should improve further when the virtual cluster is installed.

OPENJPEG Dashboard

• http://my.cdash.org/index.php?project=OPENJPEG

Valgrind Errors

• Related to the new itkTestDriver

Refactoring Workflow

• Right now
  • code is developed on other remote
  • once the code is mature, we submit to gerrit
  • lost history
  • refactoring may appear as single commit from one person (not team spirit oriented)
• Any other solution?

ImageRegionDuplicator

• The goal is to accelerate image region to region coping where possible
• memcpy vs std:copy
• http://review.source.kitware.com/#change,1277

Schedule

• Transition Plan
• When to tag ITKv4 BETA ?

Image Interpretation Layer

• ODP
• PDF

Database Interface

• https://github.com/luisibanez/LargeImageDatabaseITKIO

• system_gdcm has been compiled under mac, patch submitted
• bill reported that patch is not working under windows.
• currently the windows build have some lib naming problem, perhaps caused by cmake ? that are in the way for testing.
  • Naming problem disappeared with an update to CMake 2.8.4
• Shared libraries oddity
  • expected, vnl does not allow us to have multiple DLLs
• gdcm does not export Libraries list and libraries DIRS
  • explains why the patch is not working on windows

• Need to schedule call with Microscopy, Video and Remote Sensing groups to design a common "image interpretation layer"

SimpleITK

• Doxygen: http://erie.nlm.nih.gov/~blowek1/SimpleITK/index.html
• Github: https://github.com/SimpleITK/SimpleITK
• sitk::Image now using Copy on Write
  • Filter pass and return Image's as non-pointer Images
• Succeeded to connect SimpleITK image buffers to Java arrays.

  • http://www.bioimageanalysis.org/icy/

ITK FEM

ITK FEM Modifications

Doxygen

• what about enabling the "edit comments" to submit patches to gerrit? see documented class

• scripts
  • scripts to add examples/tests to doxygen documentation (for each class, whenever it is relevant)?
