Summary0002895: PathToImageFilter not a good base class
DescriptionThere are some problems with the CVS version of PathToInageFilter, including: (1) this "base class" has actual filter functionality, (2) the mechanism for specifying the size, spacing, origin, etc., of the output image is incomplete, contrary to ITK convention, and hard to extend, and (3) the documentation specifies that the filter would calculate the size of the output image from the path, but the filter does not.

I have solved these problems and posted the fixes to the InsightJournal.

We should try to move this IJ paper into ITK during WA10.

When I investigated this issue I found that:

1) Some of the things in his IJ article have made it into ITK/Code/Review:
ImageToPathFilter and ContourExtractor2DImagefilter.

2) Some have not, notably: PathToImageFilter, TracePathOnImageFilter

3) It appears the version of PathToImageFilter in ITK/Code/BasicFilters
still hasn't been modified to address the issues he brought up.


So I'm trying to figure out what to do when an Insight Journal article is
only half-pushed to ITK/Review, and not the part that actually addresses the
issue Zach raised.

So I don't know what course of action to take. My options seem to be

1. Close the bug, figuring that no one but Zach thought the issues he
brought up were worth addressing.

2. Move his changes to the PathToImageFilter to Code/Review

3. Move his changes to Code/BasicFilters

3.a) also move ImageToPathFilter and ContourExtractor2DImagefilter to
Code/BasicFilters
