Member Function Documentation

static void itk::LightObject::BreakOnError (   )  [static, inherited]

This method is called when itkExceptionMacro executes. It allows the debugger to break on error.

virtual LightObject::Pointer itk::Object::CreateAnother (   )  const [virtual, inherited]

Create an object from an instance, potentially deferring to a factory. This method allows you to create an instance of an object that is exactly the same type as the referring object. This is useful in cases where an object has been cast back to a base class. Reimplemented from itk::LightObject.

virtual void itk::Object::DebugOff (   )  const [virtual, inherited]

Turn debugging output off.

virtual void itk::Object::DebugOn (   )  const [virtual, inherited]

Turn debugging output on.

virtual void itk::LightObject::Delete (   )  [virtual, inherited]

Delete an itk object. This method should always be used to delete an object when the new operator was used to create it. Using the C delete method will not work with reference counting.

Command* itk::Object::GetCommand (  unsigned long  tag  )  [inherited]

Get the command associated with the given tag. NOTE: This returns a pointer to a Command, but it is safe to asign this to a Command::Pointer. Since Command inherits from LightObject, at this point in the code, only a pointer or a reference to the Command can be used.

virtual const ParametersType& itk::Optimizer::GetCurrentPosition (   )  [virtual, inherited]

Get current position of the optimization.

bool itk::Object::GetDebug (   )  const [inherited]

Get the value of the debug flag.

virtual const ParametersType& itk::Optimizer::GetInitialPosition (   )  [virtual, inherited]

Get the position to initialize the optimization.

const MetaDataDictionary& itk::Object::GetMetaDataDictionary (  void   )  const [inherited]

Returns: A constant reference to this objects MetaDataDictionary.

MetaDataDictionary& itk::Object::GetMetaDataDictionary (  void   )  [inherited]

Returns: A reference to this objects MetaDataDictionary. Warning: This reference may be changed.

virtual unsigned long itk::Object::GetMTime (   )  const [virtual, inherited]

Return this objects modified time. Reimplemented in itk::ImageRegistrationMethod< TFixedImage, TMovingImage >, itk::DeformationFieldSource< TOutputImage >, itk::InverseDeformationFieldImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage >, itk::ResampleImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage, TInterpolatorPrecisionType >, itk::VectorResampleImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage, TInterpolatorPrecisionType >, itk::BoundingBox< TPointIdentifier, VPointDimension, TCoordRep, TPointsContainer >, itk::SceneSpatialObject< SpaceDimension >, and itk::SceneSpatialObject< NDimensions >.

virtual const char* itk::NonLinearOptimizer::GetNameOfClass (   )  const [virtual]

Run-time type information (and related methods). Reimplemented from itk::Optimizer. Reimplemented in itk::AmoebaOptimizer, itk::ConjugateGradientOptimizer, itk::CumulativeGaussianOptimizer, itk::ExhaustiveOptimizer, itk::FRPROptimizer, itk::GradientDescentOptimizer, itk::LBFGSBOptimizer, itk::LBFGSOptimizer, itk::LevenbergMarquardtOptimizer, itk::MultipleValuedNonLinearOptimizer, itk::MultipleValuedNonLinearVnlOptimizer, itk::OnePlusOneEvolutionaryOptimizer, itk::PowellOptimizer, itk::QuaternionRigidTransformGradientDescentOptimizer, itk::RegularStepGradientDescentBaseOptimizer, itk::RegularStepGradientDescentOptimizer, itk::SingleValuedNonLinearOptimizer, itk::SingleValuedNonLinearVnlOptimizer, itk::SPSAOptimizer, itk::VersorRigid3DTransformOptimizer, and itk::VersorTransformOptimizer.

virtual int itk::LightObject::GetReferenceCount (   )  const [inline, virtual, inherited]

Gets the reference count on this object. Definition at line 98 of file itkLightObject.h.

Call Execute on all the Commands observing this event id.

virtual void itk::Object::Modified (   )  const [virtual, inherited]
