set_framegrabber_callback
— Register a callback function for an image acquisition device.
set_framegrabber_callback( : : AcqHandle, CallbackType, CallbackFunction, UserContext : )
The operator set_framegrabber_callback
registers a callback function
for the image acquisition device specified by AcqHandle
. The
parameter CallbackFunction
contains a pointer to the function to
register, while CallbackType
specifies to which
function of the underlying API the callback should be connected.
Suggested values for CallbackType
are:
The image acquisition has raised an exception.
The exposure of the next image has been finished.
The exposure of the next image has been started.
A new image is ready to be fetched
by grab_image_async
.
Depending on the functionality of the underlying API, additional values
for CallbackType
are possible. All actually supported callback
types of a specific image acquisition device can be queried by
calling get_framegrabber_param
with the parameter
'available_callback_types'
. For more details see the
documentation of the specific image acquisition interface.
Once the callback is registered, on every occurrence of the underlying event
(e.g., the notification that the exposure has finished) the specified
callback function CallbackFunction
will be called. If
CallbackFunction
is set to NULL, the corresponding callback will be
unregistered.
The signature of the callback function is the following: Herror HAcqCallback(void *AcqHandle, void *Context, void *UserContext) On Windows 32 bit systems, the __stdcall naming convention is used: Herror (__stdcall HAcqCallback)(void *AcqHandle, void *Context, void *UserContext)
The first parameter of the callback function contains the handle to the image
acquisition device passed in AcqHandle
, the second one provides a
pointer to interface-specific context data, and the third parameter is a
user-specific pointer that is specified in UserContext
.
For a multithreaded application all image acquisition operators
(as listed in open_framegrabber
) are
an own group in which info_framegrabber
, open_framegrabber
,
close_framegrabber
and close_all_framegrabbers
are
executed exclusively.
set_framegrabber_callback
runs in parallel with all non-exclusive
operators inside and outside of this group.
This operator modifies the state of the following input parameter:
During execution of this operator, access to the value of this parameter must be synchronized if it is used across multiple threads.
AcqHandle
(input_control, state is modified) framegrabber →
(handle)
Handle of the acquisition device to be used.
CallbackType
(input_control) string →
(string)
Callback type.
Default value: 'transfer_end'
Suggested values: 'exception' , 'exposure_end' , 'exposure_start' , 'transfer_end'
CallbackFunction
(input_control) pointer →
(integer)
Pointer to the callback function to be set.
UserContext
(input_control) pointer →
(integer)
Pointer to user-specific context data.
If the image acquisition device is open and the specified callback
was registered successfully, the operator set_framegrabber_callback
returns the value 2 (H_MSG_TRUE). Otherwise an exception is raised.
