laserpilot / ofxcoreimage Goto Github PK

I have been able to get the examples to compile and run, but there is something beyond my grasp going on with 0.9.0 and the renderer - the images are just showing as black. This may have to do with 10.11 as well. Tried updating some code from Albee's examples to see if deprecated GLUT window is the culprit, but haven't found it yet. Running without glut window causes a crash because a texture doesn't get passed to a CIImage properly.

Why does the api look so complicated,it is not possible to design one like this?

class ofxCIFilter {
public:
    ofxCIFliter();
    ~ofxCIFliter();
    // in place processing
    virtual void apply(ofImage &image) = 0;
    // out of place processing
    virtual void apply(ofImage &dst,const ofImage &src)= 0;
};

class ofxCIBlur:public ofxCIFilter{
public:
    void setRadius(float r);
    apply(ofImage &image);
    apply(ofImage &dst,const ofImage &src);
private:
    float radius;
};

I looked at the reference for Core Image, and it should be easy to convert between ofImage and CoreImage, there is a function in CIImage that looks like this:

initWithData:options:

and there is one in CIContext that looks like this

render:toBitmap:rowBytes:bounds:format:colorSpace:

Using these 2 functions conversion between ofImage and CIImage should be possible.
