vtkArrayIterator

Section: Visualization Toolkit Common Classes

Usage

vtkArrayIterator is used to iterate over elements in any vtkAbstractArray subclass. The vtkArrayIteratorTemplateMacro is used to centralize the set of types supported by Execute methods. It also avoids duplication of long switch statement case lists. Note that in this macro VTK_TT is defined to be the type of the iterator for the given type of array. One must include the vtkArrayIteratorIncludes.h header file to provide for extending of this macro by addition of new iterators.

Example usage: \begin{verbatim} vtkArrayIter* iter = array->NewIterator(); switch(array->GetDataType()) { vtkArrayIteratorTemplateMacro(myFunc(static_cast<VTK_TT*>(iter), arg2)); } iter->Delete(); \end{verbatim}

To create an instance of class vtkArrayIterator, simply invoke its constructor as follows

  obj = vtkArrayIterator
