I'd like to check in some changes to the type of images/filters that are
wrapped by Swig. We discussed earlier this week that wrapping float and
short would cover most use cases. We also need to wrap unsigned long since
that is what we typically use for label maps. To verify that we can wrap
non-native pixel types, I am also wrapping floating point rgb images. We'll
probably also need to wrap a covariant vector image type.
Users will always have the option of wrapping more image types and more
filter instantiation combinations. I'd just like to settle in on what
default types to start using.
Bill mentioned that people are using the Swig wrapping. If I make these
changes, then some of the current filter instantiations will be
removed/replaced. For instance, the US2US2 filters will become S2S2
filters.
Will this be disruptive to the people that are currently using the Swig
wrappers? I can hold off until next week if that is better for developers.
Jim
