[Insight-users] Smart pointer to filter output

[Luis Ibanez]

Hi Gerald,

by "doesn't work", what do you mean ?

   1) It does not compile ?
   2) It compiles but seg. faults at run time ?
   3) It throws an exception at run time ?
   4) It returns a null pointer at run time ?


The design of your method is strange.


You probably should have done:

 m_TargetConnector= SourceConnectorType::New();

inside the constructor of your class,

and the setSourceImage() should only
have the  lines:

> void setSourceImage(vtkImageData* image)
> {
>        m_TargetConnector->SetInput(image);
> }


Why is that there is no call to the Update() method ?

You don't seem to have a line like:

            m_TargetConnector->Update();


   Please let us know,


        Thanks


             Luis
