Detailed Description

Provides information/objects from a MITK-Pipeline to other OpenIGTLink devices.

This class is intended as the drain of the pipeline. Other OpenIGTLink devices connect with the IGTLDevice hold by this provider. The other device asks for a certain data type. The provider checks if there are other IGTLMessageSources available that provide this data type. If yes the provider connects with this source and sends the message to the requesting device.

If a STT message was received the provider looks for fitting messageSources. Once found it connects with it, starts a timing thread (which updates the pipeline) and sends the result to the requesting device.

If a GET message was received the provider just calls an update of the found source and sends the result without connecting to the source.

If a STP message was received it stops the thread and disconnects from the previous source.

So far the provider can just connect with one source.

Member Function Documentation

Pointer mitk::IGTLMessageProvider::Clone ( ) const

void mitk::IGTLMessageProvider::ConnectTo ( mitk::IGTLMessageSource * UpstreamFilter )

protected

Connects the input of this filter to the outputs of the given IGTLMessageSource.

This method does not support smartpointer. use FilterX.GetPointer() to retrieve a dumbpointer.

Definition at line 368 of file mitkIGTLMessageProvider.cpp.

References mitk::IGTLMessageSource::GetOutput().

void mitk::IGTLMessageProvider::CreateOutputs ( )

protected

Create the necessary outputs for the m_IGTLDevice.

This Method is called internally whenever outputs need to be reset. Old Outputs are deleted when called.

Definition at line 122 of file mitkIGTLMessageProvider.cpp.

void mitk::IGTLMessageProvider::DisconnectFrom ( mitk::IGTLMessageSource * UpstreamFilter )

protected

Disconnects this filter from the outputs of the given IGTLMessageSource.

This method does not support smartpointer. use FilterX.GetPointer() to retrieve a dumbpointer.

filter execute method

queries the OpenIGTLink device for new messages and updates its output igtl::MessageBase objects with it.

Warning: Will raise a std::out_of_range exception, if tools were added to the OpenIGTLink device after it was set as input for this filter

virtual unsigned int mitk::IGTLMessageProvider::GetStreamingTime ( )

virtual

Get method for the streaming time.

void mitk::IGTLMessageProvider::InvokeStartStreamingEvent ( )

protected

Invokes the start streaming event. This separate method is required, because it has to be started from the main thread. (It is used as callback function)
