Project Description

Objective Approach and Plan Progress and Next Steps
  • 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
  • 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
  • Got CLI running in background
  • For now, stay with synchroneous API, but don't let GUI freeze
  • Issue filed about XML attribute for "supports progress output"
  • (improved CLIImporter's usability w.r.t. many paths)
