[Insight-developers] IO Factories

[Luis Ibanez]

Bill,

Thanks for the changes, that's much better now.
I updated MetaImageIO: ReadHeader() was removed
and its code was implemented into CanReadFile()
and ReadImageInformation().

Examples like Curve2DExtractor can now load
PNG and Meta images.

A remaining open issue is the image dimension,
Should we check that the dimension of the image
file corresponds to what ImageFileReader<> is
expecting ?


Thanks


Luis.
