Hi all,
currently I'm involved in developing a MITK plug-in that uses MicronTracker
3 to track movements of certain tools. So far I created a small GUI to set
up the tracking system step by step, so you can select the tracking device,
add tools and connect to the tracking system. However when I try to connect
after having added at least one tool, mbilog console shows error messages
like "Loaded 0 marker templates" and "MTC error: Grab frame time out". Below
I posted a little bit of code, so you can get an idea of what I've done. It
there any error in it? Or am I missing some facts?
(Explanation of how I want my GUI to work: First you select your tracking
device from a list (QComboBox) (calls method "SelectTrackingSystem(QString
name)), second you add tools by typing a name in a textfield, selecting a
tool calibration file from a QFileDialog and clicking on a button "Add
tool". This will call method AddTool(). When you added enough tools, method
ConnectTrackingSystem() will be called (again by clicking on a button). Now
this is the very point where the log messages appear)
//
// Tracking System related methods

void QmitkMITKUltraSoundCalibrationPluginView::GetCalibrationFile()
{
m_Controls->edCalibFile->setEnabled(true);
QString fileName = QFileDialog::getOpenFileName(m_Parent, "Select a
calibration file","C:\\Programme\\Claron
Technology\\MicronTracker\\Markers","All files(*.*)");
m_Controls->edCalibFile->setText(fileName);
m_Controls->edCalibFile->setEnabled(false);

m_Source = NULL;

switch(m_arTrackingSystems.indexOf(name)){

adding it to m_Source.
// Therefore m_Source will only be instantiated by calling
ConnectTrackingSystem()
