[vtkusers] Voxel Data from MATLAB to VTK

[Brian Davis]

So I create an *instance* of vtkMatlabMexAdapter and it compiles and runs,
but then I get:

-snip-
Generic Warning: In
..\..\..\..\..\..\source\cpp\lib\3rdParty\Win\vtk-5.6.0\Graphics\vtkMatlabMexAdapter.cxx,
line 460
Input to mxArrayTovtkDataArray() has more than two dimensions, cannot
convert to vtkDataArray

ERROR: In
..\..\..\..\..\..\source\cpp\lib\3rdParty\Win\VTKEdge-5-4-0\VolumeRendering\vtkKWEGPUVolumeRayCastMapper.cxx,
line 270
vtkKWEOpenGLGPUVolumeRayCastMapper (000000000C1B61E0): No scalars found on
input.
-end snip-

in the status window.  So I search:

http://www.vtk.org/doc/nightly/html/classvtkMatlabMexAdapter.html

for the words "two" and "dimension" hoping to find the error of my ways.  No
luck.  Any have any ideas?

My code:

-snip-
   double *volumeData;


    for (int i = 0; i < nrhs; i++)
    {

        if( mxGetNumberOfDimensions( prhs[i] ) != 3 )
        {
            mexErrMsgTxt("Render volume can only accept matrix of 3
dimensions");
            return;
        }

        // Get the dimensions
        const mwSize* matDimensions = mxGetDimensions( prhs[i] );

        y_dim = matDimensions[0];
        x_dim = matDimensions[1];
        z_dim = matDimensions[2];

        mexPrintf( "y_dim = %d, x_dim = %d, z_dim = %d \n", y_dim, x_dim,
z_dim );

        volumeData = mxGetPr(prhs[i]);
    }

    image->SetDimensions( numeric_cast<int>(y_dim) ,
numeric_cast<int>(x_dim), numeric_cast<int>(z_dim) );
//    image->SetSpacing(1.0, 1.0, 1.0);
    image->SetOrigin(0.0, 0.0, 0.0);

    vtkDoubleArray* dataArray = vtkDoubleArray::New();

    // Set the array to point to data
    dataArray->SetVoidArray( (void *) volumeData, y_dim*x_dim*z_dim , 1);

    image->GetPointData()->SetScalars(dataArray);


-end snip-

Did show my volume when using CPU rendering.  However switching to GPU
rendering  would lock up.  I was hoping that I was doing something wrong and
vtkMatlabMexAdapter would be the answer for both CPU and GPU.
