Description

The operator set_framegrabber_callbackset_framegrabber_callbackSetFramegrabberCallbackSetFramegrabberCallbackSetFramegrabberCallback registers a callback function for the image acquisition device specified by AcqHandleAcqHandleAcqHandleAcqHandleacqHandle. The parameter CallbackFunctionCallbackFunctionCallbackFunctionCallbackFunctioncallbackFunction contains a pointer to the function to register, while CallbackTypeCallbackTypeCallbackTypeCallbackTypecallbackType specifies to which function of the underlying API the callback should be connected.

Suggested values for CallbackTypeCallbackTypeCallbackTypeCallbackTypecallbackType are:

'exception':

The image acquisition has raised an exception.

'exposure_end':

The exposure of the next image has been finished.

'exposure_start':

The exposure of the next image has been started.

'transfer_end':

A new image is ready to be fetched by grab_image_asyncgrab_image_asyncGrabImageAsyncGrabImageAsyncGrabImageAsync.

Depending on the functionality of the underlying API, additional values for CallbackTypeCallbackTypeCallbackTypeCallbackTypecallbackType are possible. All actually supported callback types of a specific image acquisition device can be queried by calling get_framegrabber_paramget_framegrabber_paramGetFramegrabberParamGetFramegrabberParamGetFramegrabberParam 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 CallbackFunctionCallbackFunctionCallbackFunctionCallbackFunctioncallbackFunction will be called. If CallbackFunctionCallbackFunctionCallbackFunctionCallbackFunctioncallbackFunction 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 AcqHandleAcqHandleAcqHandleAcqHandleacqHandle, the second one provides a pointer to interface-specific context data, and the third parameter is a user-specific pointer that is specified in UserContextUserContextUserContextUserContextuserContext.

Attention

For a multithreaded application all image acquisition operators (as listed in open_framegrabberopen_framegrabberOpenFramegrabberOpenFramegrabberOpenFramegrabber) are an own group in which info_framegrabberinfo_framegrabberInfoFramegrabberInfoFramegrabberInfoFramegrabber, open_framegrabberopen_framegrabberOpenFramegrabberOpenFramegrabberOpenFramegrabber, close_framegrabberclose_framegrabberCloseFramegrabberCloseFramegrabberCloseFramegrabber and close_all_framegrabbersclose_all_framegrabbersCloseAllFramegrabbersCloseAllFramegrabbersCloseAllFramegrabbers are executed exclusively.

set_framegrabber_callbackset_framegrabber_callbackSetFramegrabberCallbackSetFramegrabberCallbackSetFramegrabberCallback runs in parallel with all non-exclusive operators inside and outside of this group.

Execution Information

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.

Parameters

AcqHandleAcqHandleAcqHandleAcqHandleacqHandle (input_control, state is modified)  framegrabber HFramegrabber, HTupleHTupleHtuple (handle) (IntPtr) (HHandle) (handle)

Handle of the acquisition device to be used.

CallbackTypeCallbackTypeCallbackTypeCallbackTypecallbackType (input_control)  string HTupleHTupleHtuple (string) (string) (HString) (char*)

Callback type.

Default value: 'transfer_end' "transfer_end" "transfer_end" "transfer_end" "transfer_end"

Suggested values: 'exception'"exception""exception""exception""exception", 'exposure_end'"exposure_end""exposure_end""exposure_end""exposure_end", 'exposure_start'"exposure_start""exposure_start""exposure_start""exposure_start", 'transfer_end'"transfer_end""transfer_end""transfer_end""transfer_end"

CallbackFunctionCallbackFunctionCallbackFunctionCallbackFunctioncallbackFunction (input_control)  pointer HTupleHTupleHtuple (integer) (IntPtr) (Hlong) (Hlong)

Pointer to the callback function to be set.

UserContextUserContextUserContextUserContextuserContext (input_control)  pointer HTupleHTupleHtuple (integer) (IntPtr) (Hlong) (Hlong)

Pointer to user-specific context data.

Result

If the image acquisition device is open and the specified callback was registered successfully, the operator set_framegrabber_callbackset_framegrabber_callbackSetFramegrabberCallbackSetFramegrabberCallbackSetFramegrabberCallback returns the value 2 (H_MSG_TRUE). Otherwise an exception is raised.
