[Insight-users] Small Doubt about casting

[Luis Ibanez]

Hi Raja,

The input that you are passing is it just an "int" type ?
or are you talking about "an image of pixel type int" ?

If it is just a type "int", then automatic casting may do
the trick for you. If you are dealing with an image then
you should read the ITK Software Guide:

     http://www.itk.org/ItkSoftwareGuide.pdf

in particular the sections related to the filters:

   * CastImageFilter
   * RescaleIntensityImageFilter
   * IntensityWindowingImageFilter


In general, you shouldn't leave casting to the compiler,
you should use explicit casting with:


     static_cast< OutputType >( inputVariable );


Regards,


    Luis
