Slicer3:Transition of Slicer2.x Modules

Home < Slicer3:Transition of Slicer2.x Modules
Summary Page
Goal/Questions/Answers slide from AHM 2006
Plan of Attack
In Slicer2:
- Slicer:Slicer2_Porting_to_VTK5
- Compiling with changes to the C++ code, maintaining backward compatibility with VTK 4.x and Slicer 2
- Editing the Tcl interface to work with the ported C++ code
- Write test cases to define the gold standard we will compare Slicer3 against, see here.
In Slicer3:
- Port the threads of control in the modules from Tcl to C++
- Dynamic discovery and loading of modules
- Write a template for a Slicer3 module Template Notes
- Illustrate coding and documentation standards and style
- Write test templates in C++ and tcl
- Will have different styles of tests, some that render images and some that produce numerical output, one template for each
Done:
In Progress:
Preliminary Notes
- Focus on the data handling first, not the UI
- Each module expects to be handed a frame to populate
- Call the new data model functions
- Replace global arrays with the new data model
- The data model can be quiered by pipes or shared memory, but the API will be C++
- Try to come up with a semi automatic translation method
- First modules to transition:
- Kilians segmenter
- Ibrowser
- fMRI engine
- DTI engine
- TBD:
- List all the modules and rate difficulty in transition, UI vs data level
- Migrate old mrml into new coordinate manager space
- Look at the ITK visitor functionality to traverse a tree and get transforms
- xpath
