Hi Lia,
that's not quite what I intended. I'll you a few more explicit suggestions:
1) all the algorithms in vmtk are already in C++. The fact that you're using
them
in vmtk scripts is just for convenience. Note that this does not impose *any*
overhead,
speed-wise.
2) make sure you understand why you need to have a C++-only code. Is
it for speed only? See point 1). Is if because you want to incorporate vmtk in
a purely C++ program? This would make more sense.
3) every algorithm in vmtk is a VTK class. If you know how to program in C++
using VTK,
you know how to program in C++ using vmtk. So, make sure you are proficient
writing
VTK code before you move on with vmtk. There's a great resource of examples
here:
http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/VTK/Examples/Cxx
4) Once you have addressed 1-3, have a look into vmtk/vmtkScripts and identify
the scripts
you're interested in and take a look at what classes are used. For instance,
the code for
vmtksurfacetriangle is
cleaner = vtk.vtkCleanPolyData()
cleaner.SetInput(self.Surface)
cleaner.Update()
triangleFilter = vtk.vtkTriangleFilter()
triangleFilter.SetInput(cleaner.GetOutput())
triangleFilter.Update()
self.Surface = triangleFilter.GetOutput()
which in C++ would become
vtkCleanPolyData* cleaner = vtkCleanPolyData::New();
cleaner->SetInput(surface);
cleaner->Update();
vtkTriangleFilter* triangleFilter = vtkTriangleFilter::New();
triangleFilter->SetInput(cleaner->GetOutput());
triangleFilter->Update();
surface = triangleFilter->GetOutput();
As you see, the high-level code is almost exactly the same, and in both
cases, the call to Update triggers code that is already written in C++.
Hope this helps clarifying, but most of all, what you should clarify is point
2, i.e. what
is the need you're trying to address when you say you want pure C++ code.
Best regards
Luca
