Class RenderingStats

java.lang.Object

omeis.providers.re.RenderingStats

public class RenderingStats
extends Object

Exposes methods to time the various steps in the rendering process and provides a stats report. Every time the render method is invoked a new RenderingStats object is created that can then be accessed by the current RenderingStrategy to notify start/end times of memory allocation, IO, and rendering time.

Constructor Detail

RenderingStats

public RenderingStats(Renderer context,
                      PlaneDef plane)

Creates a new instance. This constructor takes the current time, which is then used to calculate the total time the render method took to execute. The Renderer takes care of creating this object right before the rendering process starts and then calls the stop method just after the rendering process ends.

Parameters:

context - The object whose render method is being timed. Assumed not to be null.

plane - Defines the plane that the render is processing. Assumed not to be null.

Method Detail

startMalloc

public void startMalloc()

Notifies the start of the allocation of an RGB memory buffer for the rendering process.

See Also:

endMalloc()

endMalloc

public void endMalloc()

Notifies the end of the allocation of an RGB memory buffers for the rendering process.

See Also:

startMalloc()

startIO

public void startIO(int c)

Notifies the start of pixels data retrieval for the specified wavelength (channel).

Parameters:

c - The wavelength (channel) index.

See Also:

endIO(int)

endIO

public void endIO(int c)

Notifies the end of pixels data retrieval for the specified wavelength (channel).

Parameters:

c - The wavelength (channel) index.

See Also:

startIO(int)

startRendering

public void startRendering()

Notifies the start of the trasnformation of the raw pixels data.

See Also:

endRendering()

endRendering

public void endRendering()

Notifies the end of the trasnformation of the raw pixels data.

See Also:

startRendering()

stop

public void stop()

Notifies this object that the rendering process has finished. The total rendering time is computed. That is, the time the render method took to execute. The getStats method can now be invoked to retrieve the stats report.

getStats

public String getStats()

Returns a stats report ready to be written to the log file. The report includes memory allocation, IO, and rendering times as well as a summary of the rendering context in which the call to the render method took place. This method only provides a meaningful report if it is called after the stop method.

Returns:

A log message embedding the stats report.
