Detailed Description

vtkSynchronizedRenderers subclass that uses IceT for parallel rendering and compositing.

vtkIceTSynchronizedRenderers uses IceT (the Image Compositing Engine for Tiles) for parallel rendering and compositing. This class simply uses vtkIceTCompositePass internally, even though this class is designed to be used with traditional renderers and not those using render-passes. Note that this class internally does indeed leverage the RenderPass mechanism to intercept render calls from a vtkRenderer. In other words, if you are using render passes, you should not use this class. Your render passes will be overridden.

static vtkIceTSynchronizedRenderers* vtkIceTSynchronizedRenderers::New ( ) [static]

Reimplemented from vtkSynchronizedRenderers.

virtual const char* vtkIceTSynchronizedRenderers::GetClassName ( ) [virtual]

Reimplemented from vtkSynchronizedRenderers.

static int vtkIceTSynchronizedRenderers::IsTypeOf ( const char * type ) [static]

Reimplemented from vtkSynchronizedRenderers.

virtual int vtkIceTSynchronizedRenderers::IsA ( const char * type ) [virtual]

Reimplemented from vtkSynchronizedRenderers.

static vtkIceTSynchronizedRenderers* vtkIceTSynchronizedRenderers::SafeDownCast ( vtkObject * o ) [static]

Reimplemented from vtkSynchronizedRenderers.

void vtkIceTSynchronizedRenderers::PrintSelf	(	ostream &	os,
		vtkIndent	indent
	)		`[virtual]`

Reimplemented from vtkSynchronizedRenderers.

virtual void vtkIceTSynchronizedRenderers::SetIdentifier ( unsigned int ) [virtual]

Identifier used to indentify the view to the vtkTileDisplayHelper.

virtual unsigned int vtkIceTSynchronizedRenderers::GetIdentifier ( ) [virtual]

Identifier used to indentify the view to the vtkTileDisplayHelper.

virtual void vtkIceTSynchronizedRenderers::SetRenderer ( vtkRenderer * ) [virtual]

Set the renderer to be synchronized by this instance. A vtkSynchronizedRenderers instance can be used to synchronize exactly 1 renderer on each processes. You can create multiple instances on vtkSynchronizedRenderers to synchronize multiple renderers.

Reimplemented from vtkSynchronizedRenderers.

void vtkIceTSynchronizedRenderers::SetTileDimensions	(	int	x,
		int	y
	)		`[inline]`

Set the tile dimensions. Default is (1, 1). If any of the dimensions is > 1 then tile display mode is assumed.

Definition at line 61 of file vtkIceTSynchronizedRenderers.h.

void vtkIceTSynchronizedRenderers::SetTileMullions	(	int	x,
		int	y
	)		`[inline]`

Set the tile mullions. The mullions are measured in pixels. Use negative numbers for overlap.

Definition at line 68 of file vtkIceTSynchronizedRenderers.h.

void vtkIceTSynchronizedRenderers::SetDataReplicatedOnAllProcesses ( bool val ) [inline]

Set to true if data is replicated on all processes. This will enable IceT to minimize communications since data is available on all process. Off by default.

Definition at line 76 of file vtkIceTSynchronizedRenderers.h.

void vtkIceTSynchronizedRenderers::SetKdTree ( vtkPKdTree * kdtree ) [inline]

kd tree that gives processes ordering. Initial value is a NULL pointer. This is used only when UseOrderedCompositing is true.

Definition at line 83 of file vtkIceTSynchronizedRenderers.h.

void vtkIceTSynchronizedRenderers::SetUseOrderedCompositing ( bool uoc ) [inline]

Set this to true, if compositing must be done in a specific order. This is necessary when rendering volumes or translucent geometries. When UseOrderedCompositing is set to true, it is expected that the KdTree is set as well. The KdTree is used to decide the process-order for compositing.

Definition at line 93 of file vtkIceTSynchronizedRenderers.h.

virtual void vtkIceTSynchronizedRenderers::SetImageReductionFactor ( int val ) [virtual]

Set the image reduction factor. Overrides superclass implementation.

Reimplemented from vtkSynchronizedRenderers.

virtual int vtkIceTSynchronizedRenderers::GetImageReductionFactor ( ) [inline, virtual]

Set the image reduction factor. Overrides superclass implementation.

Reimplemented from vtkSynchronizedRenderers.

Definition at line 100 of file vtkIceTSynchronizedRenderers.h.

virtual void vtkIceTSynchronizedRenderers::SetParallelController ( vtkMultiProcessController * cont ) [inline, virtual]

Set the parallel message communicator. This is used to communicate among processes.

Reimplemented from vtkSynchronizedRenderers.

Definition at line 107 of file vtkIceTSynchronizedRenderers.h.

void vtkIceTSynchronizedRenderers::SetImageProcessingPass ( vtkImageProcessingPass * )

Get/Set an image processing pass to process the rendered images.

virtual vtkImageProcessingPass* vtkIceTSynchronizedRenderers::GetImageProcessingPass ( ) [virtual]

Get/Set an image processing pass to process the rendered images.

void vtkIceTSynchronizedRenderers::SetUseDepthBuffer ( bool )

Activates or de-activated the use of Depth Buffer

void vtkIceTSynchronizedRenderers::SetRenderPass ( vtkRenderPass * )

Get/Set geometry rendering pass. This pass is used to render the geometry. If none specified then default rendering pipeline is used. This is typically the render-pass pipeline after the CameraPass. The CameraPass is setup by ParaView specially since ParaView needs some customizations for multiviews/icet etc.

virtual vtkRenderPass* vtkIceTSynchronizedRenderers::GetRenderPass ( ) [virtual]

Get/Set geometry rendering pass. This pass is used to render the geometry. If none specified then default rendering pipeline is used. This is typically the render-pass pipeline after the CameraPass. The CameraPass is setup by ParaView specially since ParaView needs some customizations for multiviews/icet etc.

virtual void vtkIceTSynchronizedRenderers::HandleEndRender ( ) [protected, virtual]

Reimplemented from vtkSynchronizedRenderers.

virtual vtkRawImage& vtkIceTSynchronizedRenderers::CaptureRenderedImage ( ) [protected, virtual]

Overridden to capture image from icet buffers instead of the screen.

Reimplemented from vtkSynchronizedRenderers.
