[Insight-users] Possible bug in itkAnalyzeImageIO?

[Raghavendra Chandrashekara]

Hi Kent,

Okay I tried the patch that you sent. Now another exception is thrown, this
time by the itkImageFileReader class:

Exception object caught!

itk::ImageFileReaderException (0x815ace8)
Location: "Unknown"
File: /vol/vipdata/packages/InsightCVS/Code/IO/itkImageFileReader.txx
Line: 94
Description:  Could not create IO object for file
../../Data/Synthetic/cube.gipl

Does this mean that the gipl image is not being recognised by any of the IO
classes?

Raghavendra.

I don't know why you're getting that far into CanRead, since the 1.2 version
of itkAnalyzeImageIO.cxx checks for valid extensions first before trying to
open the file.

I think that it's incorrect to throw an exception in CanRead anyway; my
suggestion to  you is to patch around line 1000 in that file thusly:

CHANGE:
    if( local_InputStream.fail() )
      {
        ExceptionObject exception(__FILE__, __LINE__);
        exception.SetDescription("File cannot be read");
        throw exception;
      }
    local_InputStream.read( (char *)&(this->m_hdr), sizeof(struct dsr) );
    if( local_InputStream.eof() )
      {
        ExceptionObject exception(__FILE__, __LINE__);
        exception.SetDescription("Unexpected end of file");
        throw exception;
      }
TO:
    if( local_InputStream.fail() )
      {
return false;
      }
    local_InputStream.read( (char *)&(this->m_hdr), sizeof(struct dsr) );
    if( local_InputStream.eof() )
      {
return false;
      }
