To optimize windows loading of images (and also potentially decrease the size of packages) the topic that should be tested on windows, macosx and linux are the following:

UPDATE:

Both patches from jcfr have been incorporated into a monolithic ITKv4 patch set.

git@github.com:BRAINSia/Slicer43.git

under the next-slicer43 branch

As of 2012-12-05, this was also in sync with the svn repository.

Hi Hans,

I did a fresh build with the BRAINSia/Slicer43/next-slicer43 branch with Visual Studio 2008 Express 64. However, it cannot load a file. In the "Log messages" there is a "Factories size: 3". Does this branch have a patch that still disables all factory registration?

Thanks,
Matt

Hi Folks,

You should check with Brad Lowekamp, if I remember properly, the assumption was that simply linking Slicer against the shared library should be enough to ensure the default ITK IO Factory are loaded.

Seems this doesn't work as expected on windows. Would be nice to confirm it works on Linux/MacOSX. This the platform where Brad did his testing.

Hmmm. Worked fine on Linux.

Just pushed something on my fork. If you try to apply the following patch on your windows checkout .. I am curious to see if the factory are loaded.

See https://github.com/jcfr/Slicer/commit/5b368c22c92a4005b84d0f69facb37bc55a185cd

To apply the patch:
save https://github.com/jcfr/Slicer/commit/5b368c22c92a4005b84d0f69facb37bc55a185cd.patch

Not I didn't tested it ...

apply using:
patch -p1 < 5b368c22c92a4005b84d0f69facb37bc55a185cd.patch

Topic has been updated with a commit allowing the factory to also be registered for CLI executable on Windows..

See https://github.com/jcfr/Slicer/commit/be6075a286d1a31aa3f9bee4abf154b82b223b1c

To test it, there are two options:
1) the option "Prefer CLI Executable" could be set in Slicer settings, then using a module like "GaussianBlur", the ITK factory should be loaded.
2) start a CLI from the command line using something like: C:\path\to\Slicer.exe --launch GaussianBlur.exe --param1 .. --param2 ...

After integrating the previous slicer patch, you should also consider updating the SHA1 of the Slicer execution model to: https://github.com/jcfr/SlicerExecutionModel/commit/fded7173cdab39e399e6e0a53706c17b40d53c94

There are a number of IO related errors on the Windows build today (after the ITKv4 switch).

Commit r21721:

BUG: Ensure ITKv4 IO Factory are registered within tests

  • Include directories associated with ITKFactoryRegistration are also
    appended to ITK_INLCUDE_DIRS to ensure that the method itk::itkFactoryRegistration
    could be called.

  • Code allowing to register the factory has been manually added to the
    tests.

  • Would it make sens to have this library ITKFactoryIORegistration
    being built/provided by ITKv4 proper ?

COMP: Add ITKFactoryRegistration library centralizing ITK IO factory registration

This commit will ensure that ITK IO factory are properly registered on all
supported platforms.

When ITKv4 is build shared, the library holding the factory registration code
are build statically. As a consequence, when CLI module are loaded as library
the factory are registered multiple times. Around 800 factories where registered
and this was leading to poor performance when loading images.

This commit enable the building of a shared library named ITKFactoryRegistration
that should be linked against to ensure loading of the factory. This approach
can succeed thanks to the help of the ITK variable ITK_NO_IO_FACTORY_REGISTER_MANAGER.

This variable allow to disable the automatic registration of factory in selected part
of the code.

The following two cases are handled:
- Registration of the factories within the Slicer executable.
- Registration of the factories within CLI executable.
