Detailed Description

class used to compress/encode images using threads.

vtkDataEncoder is used to compress and encode images using threads. Multiple images can be pushed into the encoder for compression and encoding. We use a vtkTypeUInt32 as the key to identify different image pipes. The images in each pipe will be processed in parallel threads. The latest compressed and encoded image can be accessed using GetLatestOutput().

vtkDataEncoder uses a thread-pool to do the compression and encoding in parallel. Note that images may not come out of the vtkDataEncoder in the same order as they are pushed in, if an image pushed in at N-th location takes longer to compress and encode than that pushed in at N+1-th location or if it was pushed in before the N-th location was even taken up for encoding by the a thread in the thread pool.

◆ IsA()

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

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 vtkDataEncoder::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 vtkObject.

◆ SetMaxThreads()

void vtkDataEncoder::SetMaxThreads ( vtkTypeUInt32  )

Define the number of worker threads to use.

Default is 3. Initialize() needs to be called after changing the thread count.

◆ GetMaxThreads()

virtual vtkTypeUInt32 vtkDataEncoder::GetMaxThreads ( )
virtual

Define the number of worker threads to use.

Default is 3. Initialize() needs to be called after changing the thread count.

◆ Initialize()

void vtkDataEncoder::Initialize ( )

Re-initializes the encoder.

This will abort any on going encoding threads and clear internal data-structures.

◆ PushAndTakeReference()

void vtkDataEncoder::PushAndTakeReference ( vtkTypeUInt32  key,
vtkImageData *&  data,
int  quality,
int  encoding = 1 
)

Push an image into the encoder.

It is not safe to modify the image after this point, including changing the reference counts for it. You may run into thread safety issues. Typically, the caller code will simply release reference to the data and stop using it. vtkDataEncoder takes over the reference for the image and will call vtkObject::UnRegister() on it when it's done. encoding can be set to 0 to skip encoding.

◆ Push()

void vtkDataEncoder::Push ( vtkTypeUInt32  key,
vtkImageData data,
int  quality,
int  encoding = 1 
)

Push an image into the encoder.

The data is considered unchanging and thus should not be modified once pushed. Reference count changes are now thread safe and hence callers should ensure they release the reference held, if appropriate.

◆ GetLatestOutput()

bool vtkDataEncoder::GetLatestOutput ( vtkTypeUInt32  key,
vtkSmartPointer< vtkUnsignedCharArray > &  data 
)

Get access to the most-recent fully encoded result corresponding to the given key, if any.

This methods returns true if the data obtained is the result from the most recent Push() for the key, if any. If this method returns false, it means that there's some image either being processed on pending processing.

◆ Flush()

void vtkDataEncoder::Flush ( vtkTypeUInt32  key)

Flushes the encoding pipe and blocks till the most recently pushed image for the particular key has been processed.

This call will block. Once this method returns, caller can use GetLatestOutput(key) to access the processed output.

◆ EncodeAsBase64Png()

const char * vtkDataEncoder::EncodeAsBase64Png ( vtkImageData img,
int  compressionLevel = 5 
)

Take an image data and synchronously convert it to a base-64 encoded png.

◆ EncodeAsBase64Jpg()

const char * vtkDataEncoder::EncodeAsBase64Jpg ( vtkImageData img,
int  quality = 50 
)

Take an image data and synchronously convert it to a base-64 encoded jpg.

◆ Finalize()

void vtkDataEncoder::Finalize ( )

This method will wait for any running thread to terminate.
