[Insight-users] `Image Memory Management

[David Holmes]

I thought that I'd add one more thing.  I would
actually prefer to keep this seperate from the filters
in the fact that I'd much prefer to set a flag for the
ITK Image which is similar to that of the Image
container that says that the image object does not
need to manage the memory and so therefore it can
exist beyond the scope of the image.

I couldn't find an appropriate method to do so.  Any
help would be appreciated.

Thanks

david
