Member Function Documentation

static vtkSynchronizedRenderWindows* vtkSynchronizedRenderWindows::New ( ) [static]

Create an object with Debug turned off, modified time initialized to zero, and reference counting on.

Reimplemented from vtkObject.

virtual const char* vtkSynchronizedRenderWindows::GetClassName ( ) [virtual]

Reimplemented from vtkObject.

static int vtkSynchronizedRenderWindows::IsTypeOf ( const char * name ) [static]

Return 1 if this class type 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 vtkObject.

virtual int vtkSynchronizedRenderWindows::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 vtkObject.

static vtkSynchronizedRenderWindows* vtkSynchronizedRenderWindows::SafeDownCast ( vtkObject * o ) [static]

Reimplemented from vtkObject.

void vtkSynchronizedRenderWindows::PrintSelf	(	ostream &	os,
		vtkIndent	indent
	)			`[virtual]`

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 vtkObject.

void vtkSynchronizedRenderWindows::SetRenderWindow ( vtkRenderWindow * )

Set the render window to be synchronized by this vtkSynchronizedRenderWindows instance. A vtkSynchronizedRenderWindows can be used to synchronize exactly 1 vtkRenderWindow on each process.

virtual vtkRenderWindow* vtkSynchronizedRenderWindows::GetRenderWindow ( ) [virtual]

Set the render window to be synchronized by this vtkSynchronizedRenderWindows instance. A vtkSynchronizedRenderWindows can be used to synchronize exactly 1 vtkRenderWindow on each process.

void vtkSynchronizedRenderWindows::SetParallelController ( vtkMultiProcessController * )

Set the parallel message communicator. This is used to communicate among processes.

virtual vtkMultiProcessController* vtkSynchronizedRenderWindows::GetParallelController ( ) [virtual]

Set the parallel message communicator. This is used to communicate among processes.

void vtkSynchronizedRenderWindows::SetIdentifier ( unsigned int id )

It's acceptable to have multiple instances on vtkSynchronizedRenderWindows on each processes to synchronize different render windows. In that case there's no way to each of the vtkSynchronizedRenderWindows instance to know how they correspond across processes. To enable that identification, a vtkSynchronizedRenderWindows can be assigned a unique id. All vtkSynchronizedRenderWindows across different processes that have the same id are "linked" together for synchronization. It's critical that the id is set before any rendering happens.

virtual unsigned int vtkSynchronizedRenderWindows::GetIdentifier ( ) [virtual]

It's acceptable to have multiple instances on vtkSynchronizedRenderWindows on each processes to synchronize different render windows. In that case there's no way to each of the vtkSynchronizedRenderWindows instance to know how they correspond across processes. To enable that identification, a vtkSynchronizedRenderWindows can be assigned a unique id. All vtkSynchronizedRenderWindows across different processes that have the same id are "linked" together for synchronization. It's critical that the id is set before any rendering happens.

virtual void vtkSynchronizedRenderWindows::SetParallelRendering ( bool ) [virtual]

Enable/Disable parallel rendering. Unless ParallelRendering is ON, no synchronization of vtkRenderWindow::Render() calls between processes happens. ON by default.

virtual bool vtkSynchronizedRenderWindows::GetParallelRendering ( ) [virtual]

Enable/Disable parallel rendering. Unless ParallelRendering is ON, no synchronization of vtkRenderWindow::Render() calls between processes happens. ON by default.

virtual void vtkSynchronizedRenderWindows::ParallelRenderingOn ( ) [virtual]

Enable/Disable parallel rendering. Unless ParallelRendering is ON, no synchronization of vtkRenderWindow::Render() calls between processes happens. ON by default.

virtual void vtkSynchronizedRenderWindows::ParallelRenderingOff ( ) [virtual]

Enable/Disable parallel rendering. Unless ParallelRendering is ON, no synchronization of vtkRenderWindow::Render() calls between processes happens. ON by default.

virtual void vtkSynchronizedRenderWindows::SetRenderEventPropagation ( bool ) [virtual]

virtual bool vtkSynchronizedRenderWindows::GetRenderEventPropagation ( ) [virtual]

virtual void vtkSynchronizedRenderWindows::RenderEventPropagationOn ( ) [virtual]

virtual void vtkSynchronizedRenderWindows::RenderEventPropagationOff ( ) [virtual]

virtual void vtkSynchronizedRenderWindows::AbortRender ( ) [virtual]

This method call be called while a render is in progress to abort the rendering. It should be called on the root node (or client).

virtual void vtkSynchronizedRenderWindows::SetRootProcessId ( int ) [virtual]

Get/Set the root-process id. This is required when the ParallelController is a vtkSocketController. Set to 0 by default (which will not work when using a vtkSocketController but will work for vtkMPIController).

virtual int vtkSynchronizedRenderWindows::GetRootProcessId ( ) [virtual]

Get/Set the root-process id. This is required when the ParallelController is a vtkSocketController. Set to 0 by default (which will not work when using a vtkSocketController but will work for vtkMPIController).

virtual void vtkSynchronizedRenderWindows::HandleStartRender ( ) [protected, virtual]
