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

Dear Lia,
vmtk code presents itself as Python code, but it is in fact a tiny
wrapper
on top of C++ code. All algorithms are already implemented in C++ (see
vmtk/vtkVmtk directory). If you look for code optimizations, you
should look
into the C++ code in that directory.
Best regards
Luca

Hello all!
How can i convert a vmtk code into c++ code, so i can run it
faster? The
code in vmtk it's attached.
Thank you in advance

So, it means that i have to implement all in c++ since the beginning?
For example, i used the /vmtkimagereader/, so in c++ i've to
use/Dicomseriereadprinttagswrite/? And for the /vmtkimagevoiselector
/i have to use the /RegionofInterestImageFilter/? Is that it? I'm so
confused... Isn't there another way easier and faster? I thought i
could convert directly into c++..
Thank you for all your pacience

Dear Luca,
Thank you for the answer. It was very helpfull. In fact, the main reason
i want to use just C++ isn't just to make it faster. This is also a
reason, but i dont know how exactly vmtk works, and i need to do a
automatic/semi-automatic tool for measure the aorta diameter. I found
vmtk by accident and i liked it very much cause its easier to work with,
but i dont know if i can make a automatic tool using it (i dont know how
to automatize the process) . In my circle, nobody knows vmtk, and my
thesis' supervisor just work with c++, so i'm going forward using vmtk
(cause i dont have much experience with c++ and vmtk scripts are easier
for me) and later, i pretend to convert into c++ so my supervisor can
correct it.
You gave me an excellent help and now i'm doing the step 4 by seeing the
vmtk scripts. If i have any addicional doubt, i hope i can count on you.
Thank you very much for your pacience and dedication.
Best regards
Lia
