7.3.3.12   The Tab Code Generation

The tab Code Generation allows you to generate and modify the HDevelop code for your specified matching application.

Options

This section allows you to determine, which code parts are to be inserted.

Menu Entry	Description
Insert Code	Insert the code generated by the Matching Assistant into the Program Window of HDevelop, see the corresponding menu item.
Create model from a model image at runtime	In the application code the matching model will be created at runtime. Select the source for its model image: Use image: Use the unmodified model image. Load modified image: Load the modified model image you saved previously. Select how the model ROI is set: Create ROI as in assistant: Use the specified ROI. Generate Code for drawing an ROI at runtime: A new ROI has to be drawn at runtime.
Load model file:	In the application code the matching model will be loaded from file.
Load recently saved model file	In the application code the recently saved model will be loaded from file.
Initialize Acquisition	Insert code to initializing an image acquisition device.
Generate display code	Display the detected model instances in a loop.
Generate value retrieving code	Generate code to retrieve the parameter values of the found matches in a loop.
	Note: For shape-based matching only.
Generate affine transformation code	Insert code for an affine transformation that can be used for alignment. Note: A reference image has to be set on the Usage tab, otherwise the model image is used. Restriction: Only for shape-based matching.
Generate rectification code	Insert code for rectifying the image of detected model instances. Note: A reference image has to be set on the Usage tab, otherwise the model image is used.

Specifying the Variable Names for the Code Generation

This section allows you to modify the names of individual variables needed for the code lines.

The dialog consists of a text field for every variable. The Matching Assistant automatically generates reasonable variable names, but you can change the individual names via the text fields.

Code Preview

This section allows you to preview the generated code and gives you the possibility to, for example, edit or replace individual operators of the code lines proposed by the Matching Assistant.
