关于tkCommand的各种事件的解释

superclass for callback/observer methods

vtkCommand is an implementation of the observer/command design pattern. In this design pattern, any instance of vtkObject can be "observed" for any events it might invoke. For example, vtkRenderer invokes a StartEvent as it begins to render and a EndEvent when it finishes rendering. Filters (subclasses of vtkProcessObject) invoke StartEvent, ProgressEvent, and EndEvent as the filter processes data. Observers of events are added with the AddObserver() method found in vtkObject. AddObserver(), besides requiring an event id or name, also takes an instance of vtkCommand (or a subclasses). Note that vtkCommand is meant to be subclassed, so that you can package the information necessary to support your callback.

Event processing can be organized in priority lists, so it is possible to truncate the processing of a particular event by setting the AbortFlag variable. The priority is set using the AddObserver() method. By default the priority is 0, events of the same priority are processed in last-in-first-processed order. The ordering/aborting of events is important for things like 3D widgets, which handle an event if the widget is selected (and then aborting further processing of that event). Otherwise. the event is passed along for further processing.

When an instance of vtkObject invokes an event, it also passes an optional void pointer to a callData. This callData is NULL most of the time. The callData is not specific to a type of event but specific to a type of vtkObject invoking a specific event. For instance, vtkCommand::PickEvent is invoked by vtkProp with a NULL callData but is invoked by vtkInteractorStyleImage with a pointer to the vtkInteractorStyleImage object itself.

Here is the list of events that may be invoked with a non-NULL callData.
