2.1.2 Image Processing

Image processing operators are organized in a hierarchy under CImageProcessor all image processor classe's names begin with "C". Image processor operators are not "real" classes, in the sense that the operators are implemented through a static "Apply" function, and that these classes are never instatiated. The "class" hierarchy is essentially there to provide a convenient way to group and classify the image processing operators.

Each image processor has a full description in xml format, including documentation and a description of each one of its arguments. This xml description is also used to automatically generate sourcecode for image processing command line and viewer calls (see plugins).
