Key Investigators

Project Description

Objective

  • Make it possible to run CLI modules asynchronously in MeVisLab, i.e. without freezing the UI during (potentially long) runtime
  • Possibly enable progress reporting (as in CTK/Slicer) for CLIs that support this

Approach, Plan

  • Start CLIs in the background (already refactored to this avail)
  • Add status fields, modeled after typical background task modules
  • Parse output every xx milliseconds
  • Try to immediately detect finished process

Progress
