[ITK] [ITK-users] How to abort execution of ImageRegistrationMethodv4 / Optimizer

At a first glance it seems that ImageRegistrationMethodv4 does not check 
for the abort flag:

ImageRegistrationMethodv4<TFixedImage, TMovingImage, TTransform, 
TVirtualImage>
::GenerateData()
{
   this->AllocateOutputs();
   for( this->m_CurrentLevel = 0; this->m_CurrentLevel < 
this->m_NumberOfLevels; this->m_CurrentLevel++ )
     {
     this->InitializeRegistrationAtEachLevel( this->m_CurrentLevel );

     this->m_Metric->Initialize();

     this->m_Optimizer->StartOptimization();
     }
}

If I modify this code to check for m_AbortGenerateData, the registration 
terminates as expected.


In addition it seems that the members m_CurrentMetricValue, 
m_CurrentIteration etc. are never updated during optimization.

Best regards
Bryn
