The Common Toolkit Hackfest at the DKFZ in Heidelberg, Germany hosted by the MBI.
| This is a working meeting - the goal is to start writing code! |

- http://www.CommonTk.org (under development)
Topics
(1) Memory Management
- Large Image Handling
- streaming
- out of core data management (memory mapped files, etc)
- level of detail
- Google Earth 3D
- caching
- Decide on smartpointers e.g. C++0x/Boost
- Afternoon: check Qt vs C++0x/Boost smartpointers
- Rule: Use Smartpointers of the super-class; if there is no super-class, use the one decided upon in the afternoon...
(2) Migrate some code to the repository (e.g. Qt widgets) and use it in our respective toolkits
Steve: goal to make some progress on consolidating some Qt widgets from our various projects into a repository that we can all contribute to. Slicer Qt Project
See also CTK Widget Wish List Make use of Qxt? Qwt?
Slicer Annotation and Markup project for reporting
(3) DICOM IO layer on top of DCMTK: interpretation of DICOM data
(4) Interoperability of plugins
Steve: Summarize what would it take to make a standard that could handle at least the three following systems:
- Slicer Command Line Execution Model
- XIP / DICOM WG23 Application Hosting
- XIP-Builder / Visual Programming Interface integration
- MIPAV/JIST plugins
- OpenIGTLink
If we can handle those, then that's probably broad enough to cover many common scenarios.
Jc: PythonQt and the Qt based plugin architecture used in SlicerQt
Sascha, Olivier: Generic service oriented approach to expose modules for multiple platforms.
(5) Generic event mechanism (e.g. event bus, translate events into signals)
