Detailed Description

template<class TOutputImage, class ConvertPixelTraits = DefaultConvertPixelTraits< typename TOutputImage::PixelType>>
class itk::ImageFileReader< TOutputImage, ConvertPixelTraits >

Data source that reads image data from a single file.

This source object is a general filter to read data from a variety of file formats. It works with a ImageIOBase subclass to actually do the reading of the data. Object factory machinery can be used to automatically create the ImageIOBase, or the ImageIOBase can be manually created and set. Note that this class reads data from a single file; if you wish to read data from a series of files use ImageSeriesReader.

TOutputImage is the type expected by the external users of the filter. If data stored in the file is stored in a different format then specified by TOutputImage, than this filter converts data between the file type and the external expected type. The ConvertTraits template argument is used to do the conversion.

A Pluggable factory pattern is used this allows different kinds of readers to be registered (even at run time) without having to modify the code in this class. Normally just setting the FileName with the appropriate suffix is enough to get the reader to instantiate the correct ImageIO and read the file properly. However, some files (like raw binary format) have no accepted suffix, so you will have to manually create the ImageIO instance of the write type.

template<class TOutputImage, class ConvertPixelTraits = DefaultConvertPixelTraits< typename TOutputImage::PixelType>>
void itk::ImageFileReader< TOutputImage, ConvertPixelTraits >::DoConvertBuffer void *  buffer,
unsigned long  numberOfPixels
[protected]
 

Convert a block of pixels from one type to another.

template<class TOutputImage, class ConvertPixelTraits = DefaultConvertPixelTraits< typename TOutputImage::PixelType>>
virtual void itk::ImageFileReader< TOutputImage, ConvertPixelTraits >::EnlargeOutputRequestedRegion DataObject output  )  [virtual]
 

Give the reader a chance to indicate that it will produce more output than it was requested to produce. ImageFileReader cannot currently read a portion of an image (since the ImageIO objects cannot read a portion of an image), so the ImageFileReader must enlarge the RequestedRegion to the size of the image on disk.

Reimplemented from itk::ProcessObject.

template<class TOutputImage, class ConvertPixelTraits = DefaultConvertPixelTraits< typename TOutputImage::PixelType>>
virtual void itk::ImageFileReader< TOutputImage, ConvertPixelTraits >::GenerateData  )  [protected, virtual]
 

Does the real work.

template<class TOutputImage, class ConvertPixelTraits = DefaultConvertPixelTraits< typename TOutputImage::PixelType>>
virtual void itk::ImageFileReader< TOutputImage, ConvertPixelTraits >::GenerateOutputInformation void   )  [virtual]
 

Prepare the allocation of the output image during the first back propagation of the pipeline.

Reimplemented from itk::ProcessObject.

template<class TOutputImage, class ConvertPixelTraits = DefaultConvertPixelTraits< typename TOutputImage::PixelType>>
virtual const char* itk::ImageFileReader< TOutputImage, ConvertPixelTraits >::GetClassName  )  const [virtual]
 

Run-time type information (and related methods).

Reimplemented from itk::ImageSource< TOutputImage >.

template<class TOutputImage, class ConvertPixelTraits = DefaultConvertPixelTraits< typename TOutputImage::PixelType>>
virtual const char* itk::ImageFileReader< TOutputImage, ConvertPixelTraits >::GetFileName  )  const [virtual]
 

Specify the file to read. This is forwarded to the IO instance.

template<class TOutputImage, class ConvertPixelTraits = DefaultConvertPixelTraits< typename TOutputImage::PixelType>>
virtual ImageIOBase* itk::ImageFileReader< TOutputImage, ConvertPixelTraits >::GetImageIO  )  [virtual]
 

Set/Get the ImageIO helper class. Often this is created via the object factory mechanism that determines whether a particular ImageIO can read a certain file. This method provides a way to get the ImageIO instance that is created. Or you can directly specify the ImageIO to use to read a particular file in case the factory mechanism will not work properly (e.g., unknown or unusual extension).

template<class TOutputImage, class ConvertPixelTraits = DefaultConvertPixelTraits< typename TOutputImage::PixelType>>
Pointer itk::ImageFileReader< TOutputImage, ConvertPixelTraits >::New  )  [static]
 

Method for creation through the object factory.

Reimplemented from itk::Object.

template<class TOutputImage, class ConvertPixelTraits = DefaultConvertPixelTraits< typename TOutputImage::PixelType>>
void itk::ImageFileReader< TOutputImage, ConvertPixelTraits >::PrintSelf std::ostream &  os,
Indent  indent
const [protected, virtual]
 

Methods invoked by Print() to print information about the object including superclasses. Typically not called by the user (use Print() instead) but used in the hierarchical print process to combine the output of several classes.

Reimplemented from itk::ProcessObject.

template<class TOutputImage, class ConvertPixelTraits = DefaultConvertPixelTraits< typename TOutputImage::PixelType>>
virtual void itk::ImageFileReader< TOutputImage, ConvertPixelTraits >::SetFileName const char *  _arg  )  [virtual]

template<class TOutputImage, class ConvertPixelTraits = DefaultConvertPixelTraits< typename TOutputImage::PixelType>>
void itk::ImageFileReader< TOutputImage, ConvertPixelTraits >::SetImageIO ImageIOBase imageIO  ) 
 

Set/Get the ImageIO helper class. Often this is created via the object factory mechanism that determines whether a particular ImageIO can read a certain file. This method provides a way to get the ImageIO instance that is created. Or you can directly specify the ImageIO to use to read a particular file in case the factory mechanism will not work properly (e.g., unknown or unusual extension).
