[vtkusers] What's the real meaning of Finalize()

[Johan Hatlelid]

Hi!

I'm trying to figure out what vtkThreadedController::Finalize() actually does.
Does it clean up or set up?

Some paste here, from the 4.0 manual:
*************************************

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--
virtual void vtkMultiProcessController::Finalize  (      )    [pure virtual]

This method is for cleaning up. If a subclass needs to clean up process 
communication (i.e. MPI) it would over ride this method.

Reimplemented in vtkMPIController, vtkSocketController, and 
vtkThreadedController.

"Cleaning up", it's what Finalize() is for. 
Then why does vtkThreadedController() say it somethinw quite different:


------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--
virtual void vtkThreadedController::Finalize  (      )    [inline, virtual]
 
This method is for setting up the processes.

Reimplemented from vtkMultiProcessController. 
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--
virtual void vtkThreadedController::Initialize  (   int *     argc, char ***   
arcv)  [virtual]
 
This method is for setting up the processes. 
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Clearly there must be something wrong here, both Initialize and Finalize says 
they're for setting up the processes.
