Detailed Description

Author:

Hans J. Johnson The MetaDataDictionary, along with the MetaDataObject derived template classes, is designed to provide a mechanism for storing a collection of arbitrary data types. The main motivation for such a collection is to associate arbitrary data elements with itk DataObjects.

Member Function Documentation

ConstIterator itk::MetaDataDictionary::Begin (   )  const

Returns an iterator to the beginning of the map* Iterator itk::MetaDataDictionary::Begin (   )

Warning: the following functions SHOULD NOT be used with the visual studio 6 compiler since iterator outside of the dll context cannot be dereferenced safely

ConstIterator itk::MetaDataDictionary::End (   )  const

Returns an iterator to the end of the map* Iterator itk::MetaDataDictionary::End (   )

ConstIterator itk::MetaDataDictionary::Find (  const std::string &  key  )  const

Returns an iterator matching the string key* Iterator itk::MetaDataDictionary::Find (  const std::string &  key  )

std::vector<std::string> itk::MetaDataDictionary::GetKeys (   )  const

Returns a vector of keys to the key/value entries in the dictionary. Iterate through the dictionary using these keys.

bool itk::MetaDataDictionary::HasKey (  const std::string &   )

Referenced by itk::ExposeMetaData().

void itk::MetaDataDictionary::operator= (  const MetaDataDictionary &   )

const MetaDataObjectBase* itk::MetaDataDictionary::operator[] (  const std::string &   )  const

MetaDataObjectBase::Pointer& itk::MetaDataDictionary::operator[] (  const std::string &   )

virtual void itk::MetaDataDictionary::Print (  std::ostream &  os  )  const [virtual]

Defines the default behavior for printing out this element Parameters: os  An output stream
