[ITK] [ITK-users] Composite Filter with variable stdvector of filters inside

Hi Ignacio,

GenerateInputRequestedRegion() may be a good place, too.

When an Update() is called, GenerateInputRequestedRegion() will get
called during the pipeline update if the filter's Modified time
indicates this is necessary.  If the filter needs to be updated, the
GenerateData will also get called as appropriate.

The best manual I am aware of is the ITK Software Guide [1].  More
information on this subject comes in Section 8.3.2 Details of Pipeline
Execution and section 8.3 Streaming Large Data.

HTH,
Matt
