virtual bool IsHistoryUpdater(const View& v) const

[NKV]

Hi,
As you know there are two type of modules:
type 1: create new image (for example Debayer ), which not compatible with ImageContainer
type 2: modify image (for example Crop ), which compatible with ImageContainer
I try to write some module, where user can choose where save result: to new image or to processed image.

My question: what should i do with PCL function:

Code: [Select]

    bool MyModule_Instance::IsHistoryUpdater(const View& view) const
    {
        return true; // we are change source image, it's good for type 2 strategy
    }But, what about type 1? How to reset modification flag in source View?

PS or, can: return myModificationFlag;

Your reimplementation of ProcessImplementation::IsHistoryUpdater() should tell the core what happens to an image's history if a particular instance (the instance pointed to by this) is executed on the image, so,

PS or, can: return myModificationFlag;

is correct. More explicitly:

class MyInstance : public ProcessImplementation
{
public:
   
   MyInstance();
   
   virtual void Assign( const ProcessImplementation& );
   
   virtual bool IsHistoryUpdater( const View& ) const
   {
      return !p_createNewImage;
   }

   ...
   
private:
   
   pcl_bool p_createNewImage;
   
   ...
};

Thank you!
