Detailed Description

Superclass for all sources, filters, and sinks in VTK.

vtkAlgorithm is the superclass for all sources, filters, and sinks in VTK. It defines a generalized interface for executing data processing algorithms. Pipeline connections are associated with input and output ports that are independent of the type of data passing through the connections.

Instances may be used independently or within pipelines with a variety of architectures and update mechanisms. Pipelines are controlled by instances of vtkExecutive. Every vtkAlgorithm instance has an associated vtkExecutive when it is used in a pipeline. The executive is responsible for data flow.

◆ ProcessRequest() [1/2]

virtual vtkTypeBool vtkAlgorithm::ProcessRequest	(	vtkInformation *	request,
		vtkInformationVector **	inInfo,
		vtkInformationVector *	outInfo
	)

virtual

Upstream/Downstream requests form the generalized interface through which executives invoke a algorithm's functionality.

Upstream requests correspond to information flow from the algorithm's outputs to its inputs. Downstream requests correspond to information flow from the algorithm's inputs to its outputs.

A downstream request is defined by the contents of the request information object. The input to the request is stored in the input information vector passed to ProcessRequest. The results of an downstream request are stored in the output information vector passed to ProcessRequest.

An upstream request is defined by the contents of the request information object. The input to the request is stored in the output information vector passed to ProcessRequest. The results of an upstream request are stored in the input information vector passed to ProcessRequest.

It returns the boolean status of the pipeline (false means failure).

Reimplemented in vtkParticleTracerBase, vtkExodusIIWriter, vtkTemporalStreamTracer, vtkXdmfReader, vtkXMLWriter, vtkXMLReader, vtkTemporalFractal, vtkStringToNumeric, vtkPassArrays, vtkTemporalShiftScale, vtkDataSetAlgorithm, vtkPassInputTypeAlgorithm, vtkGenerateIndexArray, vtkPointSetAlgorithm, vtkXMLPDataObjectWriter, vtkEnsembleSource, vtkXMLStructuredDataWriter, vtkCPExodusIIInSituReader, vtkWriter, vtkPieceRequestFilter, vtkTemporalDataSetCache, vtkHyperTreeGridCellCenters, vtkTemporalSnapToTimeStep, vtkStringToCategory, vtkMultiBlockDataSetAlgorithm, vtkUniformGridAMRAlgorithm, vtkCompositeDataSetAlgorithm, vtkHierarchicalBoxDataSetAlgorithm, vtkCompositeDataGeometryFilter, vtkWindBladeReader, vtkImageResliceMapper, vtkImageMapper3D, vtkMNITransformReader, vtkMNITransformWriter, vtkImageSliceMapper, vtkPythonAlgorithm, vtkExodusIIReader, vtkDataReader, vtkImplicitModeller, vtkConnectivityFilter, vtkADIOS2CoreImageReader, vtkUnsignedDistance, vtkXdmf3Reader, vtkWindowToImageFilter, vtkPlaneCutter, vtkSignedDistance, vtkRendererSource, vtkPolyDataMapper, vtkTransformToGrid, vtkAppendDataSets, vtkImageOpenClose3D, vtkMultiTimeStepAlgorithm, vtkHyperTreeGridAlgorithm, vtkResampleToImage, vtkXMLPMultiBlockDataWriter, vtkRenderLargeImage, vtkXMLCompositeDataWriter, vtkmExternalFaces, vtkXMLUnstructuredDataWriter, vtkGraphAlgorithm, vtkArrayDataAlgorithm, vtkPolyDataAlgorithm, vtkExtractDataOverTime, vtkDataObjectAlgorithm, vtkDirectedGraphAlgorithm, vtkPiecewiseFunctionAlgorithm, vtkRectilinearGridAlgorithm, vtkXMLTableWriter, vtkLabelHierarchyAlgorithm, vtkMoleculeAlgorithm, vtkSMPContourGrid, vtkImageDataStreamer, vtkImageAlgorithm, vtkStructuredGridAlgorithm, vtkUndirectedGraphAlgorithm, vtkUnstructuredGridAlgorithm, vtkUnstructuredGridBaseAlgorithm, vtkTableAlgorithm, vtkTreeAlgorithm, vtkSelectionAlgorithm, vtkImageStencilAlgorithm, vtkAnnotationLayersAlgorithm, vtkMemoryLimitImageDataStreamer, vtkTrivialProducer, vtkExplicitStructuredGridAlgorithm, and vtkStreamerBase.

◆ ProcessRequest() [2/2]

vtkTypeBool vtkAlgorithm::ProcessRequest	(	vtkInformation *	request,
		vtkCollection *	inInfo,
		vtkInformationVector *	outInfo
	)

Version of ProcessRequest() that is wrapped.

This converts the collection to an array and calls the other version.

◆ ComputePipelineMTime()

virtual int vtkAlgorithm::ComputePipelineMTime	(	vtkInformation *	request,
		vtkInformationVector **	inInfoVec,
		vtkInformationVector *	outInfoVec,
		int	requestFromOutputPort,

	)

virtual

A special version of ProcessRequest meant specifically for the pipeline modified time request.

See vtkExecutive::ComputePipelineMTime() for details.

Reimplemented in vtkClipClosedSurface, vtkVolumeOutlineSource, vtkImageImport, and vtkImageOpenClose3D.

◆ ModifyRequest()

virtual int vtkAlgorithm::ModifyRequest	(	vtkInformation *	request,
		int	when
	)

virtual

This method gives the algorithm a chance to modify the contents of a request before or after (specified in the when argument) it is forwarded.

The default implementation is empty. Returns 1 on success, 0 on failure. When can be either vtkExecutive::BeforeForward or vtkExecutive::AfterForward.

◆ GetInputPortInformation()

vtkInformation* vtkAlgorithm::GetInputPortInformation ( int port )

Get the information object associated with an input port.

There is one input port per kind of input to the algorithm. Each input port tells executives what kind of data and downstream requests this algorithm can handle for that input.

◆ GetOutputPortInformation()

vtkInformation* vtkAlgorithm::GetOutputPortInformation ( int port )

Get the information object associated with an output port.

There is one output port per output from the algorithm. Each output port tells executives what kind of upstream requests this algorithm can handle for that output.

◆ GetInformation()

virtual vtkInformation* vtkAlgorithm::GetInformation ( )

virtual

Set/Get the information object associated with this algorithm.

◆ SetInformation()

virtual void vtkAlgorithm::SetInformation ( vtkInformation * )

virtual vtkTypeBool vtkAlgorithm::GetAbortExecute ( )

virtual

◆ AbortExecuteOn()

virtual void vtkAlgorithm::AbortExecuteOn ( )

virtual

◆ AbortExecuteOff()

virtual void vtkAlgorithm::AbortExecuteOff ( )

virtual

◆ GetProgress()

virtual double vtkAlgorithm::GetProgress ( )

virtual

Get the execution progress of a process object.

◆ SetProgress()

void vtkAlgorithm::SetProgress ( double )

SetProgress is deprecated.

Subclasses should use UpdateProgress to report progress updates.

◆ UpdateProgress()

void vtkAlgorithm::UpdateProgress ( double amount )

Update the progress of the process object.

If a ProgressMethod exists, executes it. Then set the Progress ivar to amount. The parameter amount should range between (0,1).

◆ SetProgressShiftScale()

void vtkAlgorithm::SetProgressShiftScale	(	double	shift,
		double	scale
	)

Specify the shift and scale values to use to apply to the progress amount when UpdateProgress is called.

By default shift is set to 0, and scale is set to 1.0. This is useful when the vtkAlgorithm instance is used as an internal algorithm to solve only a part of a whole problem.

If calling on a internal vtkAlgorithm, make sure you take into consideration that values set of the outer vtkAlgorithm as well since the outer vtkAlgorithm itself may be nested in another algorithm.

◆ SetProgressText()

void vtkAlgorithm::SetProgressText ( const char * ptext )

Set the current text message associated with the progress state.

This may be used by a calling process/GUI. Note: Because SetProgressText() is called from inside RequestData() it does not modify the algorithm object. Algorithms are not allowed to modify themselves from inside RequestData().

		int	port,
		int	connection,
		int	fieldAssociation,
		const char *	name
	)

virtual

Set the input data arrays that this algorithm will process.

Specifically the idx array that this algorithm will process (starting from 0) is the array on port, connection with the specified association and name or attribute type (such as SCALARS). The fieldAssociation refers to which field in the data object the array is stored. See vtkDataObject::FieldAssociations for detail.

Reimplemented in vtkCompositePolyDataMapper2.

virtual void vtkAlgorithm::SetInputArrayToProcess	(	int	idx,
		int	port,
		int	connection,

	)

virtual

String based versions of SetInputArrayToProcess().

Because fieldAssociation and fieldAttributeType are enums, they cannot be easily accessed from scripting language. These methods provides an easy and safe way of passing association and attribute type information. Field association is one of the following:

* vtkDataObject::FIELD_ASSOCIATION_POINTS
* vtkDataObject::FIELD_ASSOCIATION_CELLS
* vtkDataObject::FIELD_ASSOCIATION_NONE
* vtkDataObject::FIELD_ASSOCIATION_POINTS_THEN_CELLS
*

Attribute type is one of the following:

* vtkDataSetAttributes::SCALARS
* vtkDataSetAttributes::VECTORS
* vtkDataSetAttributes::NORMALS
* vtkDataSetAttributes::TCOORDS
* vtkDataSetAttributes::TENSORS
*

If the last argument is not an attribute type, it is assumed to be an array name.

Set the connection for the given input port index.

Each input port of a filter has a specific purpose. A port may have zero or more connections and the required number is specified by each filter. Setting the connection with this method removes all other connections from the port. To add more than one connection use AddInputConnection().

The input for the connection is the output port of another filter, which is obtained with GetOutputPort(). Typical usage is

filter2->SetInputConnection(0, filter1->GetOutputPort(0)).

	)

virtual

This method enables the passing of data requests to the algorithm to be used during execution (in addition to bringing a particular port up-to-date).

The requests argument should contain an information object for each port that requests need to be passed. For each of those, the pipeline will copy all keys to the output information before execution. This is equivalent to:

* algorithm->UpdateInformation();
* for (int i=0; i<algorithm->GetNumberOfOutputPorts(); i++)
* {
* vtkInformation* portRequests = requests->GetInformationObject(i);
* if (portRequests)
* {
* algorithm->GetOutputInformation(i)->Append(portRequests);
* }
* }
* algorithm->Update();
*

Available requests include UPDATE_PIECE_NUMBER(), UPDATE_NUMBER_OF_PIECES() UPDATE_EXTENT() etc etc.
