Detailed Description

Shared context used by vtkSerializer and vtkDeserializer

This class is capable of tracking dependencies among VTK objects, their states and preventing recursion when the VTK serialization classes are used.

It also provides centralized storage and tracking of objects in a weak object map, recording ownership of objects using a strong object map, hashing the contents of blobs to minimize data redundancies in the state and finally an API to coordinate the registration and removal of states, objects and blobs.

static

◆ IsA()

virtual vtkTypeBool vtkMarshalContext::IsA ( const char * name )

virtual

Return 1 if this class is the same type of (or a subclass of) the named class.

Returns 0 otherwise. This method works in combination with vtkTypeMacro found in vtkSetGet.h.

Reimplemented from vtkObjectBase.

◆ PrintSelf()

void vtkMarshalContext::PrintSelf	(	ostream &	os,
		vtkIndent	indent
	)

overridevirtual

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 vtkObjectBase.

◆ Blobs()

const nlohmann::json & vtkMarshalContext::Blobs ( ) const

Get blobs.

◆ States()

const nlohmann::json & vtkMarshalContext::States ( ) const

Get states.

◆ WeakObjects()

const WeakObjectStore & vtkMarshalContext::WeakObjects ( ) const

Get map of weak objects.

◆ StrongObjects()

const StrongObjectStore & vtkMarshalContext::StrongObjects ( ) const

Get map of strong objects.

◆ KeepAlive()

void vtkMarshalContext::KeepAlive	(	const std::string &	owner,
		vtkObjectBase *	objectBase
	)

This method creates a record of ownership between owner and objectBase.

◆ Retire()

void vtkMarshalContext::Retire	(	const std::string &	owner,
		vtkObjectBase *	objectBase
	)

Release the strong reference kept by owner to the given objectBase.

This method does nothing if the records show that owner doesn't own objectBase.

◆ RegisterState()

bool vtkMarshalContext::RegisterState ( nlohmann::json state )

Add a state.

Returns true if the state was registered, false otherwise.

Note: The state is successfully registered only if a key named "Id" exists in state and it's value is an unsigned integer.

◆ UnRegisterState()

bool vtkMarshalContext::UnRegisterState ( vtkTypeUInt32 identifier )

Removes a state.

Returns true if a state exists at identifier and it was removed, false otherwise.

◆ GetState()

nlohmann::json & vtkMarshalContext::GetState ( vtkTypeUInt32 identifier ) const

Find and get the state registered at identifier.

Returns an empty json object if there is no state registered at identifier.

◆ RegisterObject()

bool vtkMarshalContext::RegisterObject	(	vtkObjectBase *	objectBase,
		vtkTypeUInt32 &	identifier
	)

Add an objectBase into the weak object store associated with identifier.

If identifier is 0, a new identifier will be created. Returns true if the objectBase was registered, false otherwise.

Note: The objectBase is successfully registered only if it is non-null.

◆ UnRegisterObject()

bool vtkMarshalContext::UnRegisterObject ( vtkTypeUInt32 identifier )

Removes an objectBase registered at identifier from the weak object store.

Returns true if a objectBase exists at identifier and it was removed, false otherwise.

◆ GetObjectAtId()

vtkSmartPointer< vtkObjectBase > vtkMarshalContext::GetObjectAtId ( vtkTypeUInt32 identifier ) const

Find and get the objectBase registered at identifier.

◆ GetId()

vtkTypeUInt32 vtkMarshalContext::GetId ( vtkObjectBase * objectBase ) const

Get the identifier associated with objectBase.

◆ RegisterBlob()

bool vtkMarshalContext::RegisterBlob	(	vtkSmartPointer< vtkTypeUInt8Array >	blob,
		std::string &	hash
	)

Add a blob into the blob store associated with hash.

If hash is an empty string, the contents of blob will be hashed and the result of the hashing algorithm stored in hash. Returns true if the blob was registered, false otherwise.

Note: The blob is successfully registered only if it is non-null. This method accepts empty blobs.

◆ UnRegisterBlob()

bool vtkMarshalContext::UnRegisterBlob ( const std::string & hash )

Removes a blob registered at hash from the blob store.

Returns true if a blob exists at hash and it was removed, false otherwise.

◆ GetBlob()

vtkSmartPointer< vtkTypeUInt8Array > vtkMarshalContext::GetBlob ( const std::string & hash )

Find and get the blob registered at hash.

◆ GetDirectDependencies()

std::vector< vtkTypeUInt32 > vtkMarshalContext::GetDirectDependencies ( vtkTypeUInt32 identifier ) const

Return all direct dependencies of the object/state registered at identifier.

Note: This method doesn't compute the dependencies on demand. Instead it relies upon the vtkSerializer/vtkDeserializer correctly using the ScopedParentTracker API to record the genealogy of object(s)/state(s) serialized/deserialized.

Technically, it's not a strict genealogy as it is possible to have circular dependencies.

◆ ResetDirectDependencies()

void vtkMarshalContext::ResetDirectDependencies ( )

Reset the dependency cache.

◆ ResetDirectDependenciesForNode()

void vtkMarshalContext::ResetDirectDependenciesForNode ( vtkTypeUInt32 identifier )

Reset the dependency cache for the given identifier

◆ MakeId()

vtkTypeUInt32 vtkMarshalContext::MakeId ( )

Make a new identifier.

◆ PushParent()

void vtkMarshalContext::PushParent ( vtkTypeUInt32 identifier )

Make identifier the active identifier.

All subsequent AddChild(child) will add child into the list of children for identifier until PopParent gets invoked.

◆ PopParent()

void vtkMarshalContext::PopParent ( )

Adds the 'active' identifier into the genealogy.

It's children are populated using the recorded children of the 'active' identifier using AddChild The active parent is reset to the previous identifier.

◆ HasId()

bool vtkMarshalContext::HasId	(	vtkObjectBase *	objectBase,
		vtkTypeUInt32 &	identifier
	)

protected

Return true if objectBase exists in the weak object store, false otherwise If the objectBase exists, it's id will be stored in identifier.

Note: This is just a convenient method that wraps around GetId.

◆ IsProcessing()

bool vtkMarshalContext::IsProcessing ( vtkTypeUInt32 identfier )

protected

Return true if identifier has been through PushParent, but not yet been through PopParent, false otherwise.

◆ IsProcessed()

bool vtkMarshalContext::IsProcessed ( vtkTypeUInt32 identifier )

protected

Returnstrue if identifier exists in the genealogy of object(s)/state(s), false otherwise.

◆ AddChild()

void vtkMarshalContext::AddChild ( vtkTypeUInt32 identifier )

protected

Records identifier in the list of children of the 'active' identifier.

Note

This parent-child relationship is not commited into the genealogy until PopParent is invoked.
This method does nothing if there is no 'active' identfier, i.e, when PushParent(identifier) was never called.
