But the documentation states:</div><div><b>This source object is a general filter to read data from a variety of file formats. It works with a ImageIOBase subclass to actually do the reading of the data.</b></div><div><br></div><div>So if you go the ImageIOBase [1] class definition, you will find the SetFileName method. This can be confusing at the beginning, but when you don’t find a method somewhere (and this is often the case for most of projects you’ll find around, not only ITK), think to look at the parent class and the child/subclass. Often the methods are defined somewhere else.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>For the Update() call, this is related to the ITK pipeline. Some detailed description can be found here [2]. There is also one article here [3] that is more readable, or there is a section (13.3) in the ITK software guide here [4].</div><div><br></div><div>Finally, we have a nice set of examples here [5] which show you how to use the ITK pipeline. This should help you getting started.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>[1] <a href="http://www.itk.org/Insight/Doxygen/html/classitk_1_1ImageIOBase.html">http://www.itk.org/Insight/Doxygen/html/classitk_1_1ImageIOBase.html</a></div><div>[2] <a href="http://www.itk.org/Doxygen/html/classitk_1_1DataObject.html">http://www.itk.org/Doxygen/html/classitk_1_1DataObject.html</a></div><div>[3] <a href="http://www.kitware.com/media/html/IOStreamingInITK.html">http://www.kitware.com/media/html/IOStreamingInITK.html</a></div><div>[4] <a href="http://www.itk.org/ItkSoftwareGuide.pdf">http://www.itk.org/ItkSoftwareGuide.pdf</a></div><div>[5] <a href="http://itk.org/ITKExamples/">http://itk.org/ITKExamples/</a></div></div><div><br></div><br><div><div>On 9 mai 2014, at 22:45, Simplicity Peace <<a href="mailto:simplicitypeacescm@gmail.com">simplicitypeacescm@gmail.com</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr"><div>Hello,<br><br></div>For instance, I tried to look for the functions of the class "ImageFileReader".
