Description

This function inquires about a specified setting of a MIL container or component.

Note that this function reference has not been updated for a MIL system added during a MIL update. Refer to the MIL system's release note to see which MIL system’s documentation you should use in its place and any possible differences.
Parameters
This function is not supported on the selected boards.
This function reference has not been updated for the selected MIL system. To show the content of this page, choose a second MIL system; refer to the MIL system's release note to see which MIL system’s documentation to choose and any possible differences.
Parameters
ContainerBufId

Specifies the identifier of the source container. The container must have been previously allocated on the required system using MbufAllocContainer().

Component

Specifies the component to inquire.

This setting can be used to specify to inquire the container itself.

function map For specifying to inquire the container itself
Click to summarizeValue Description
Click to summarize M_CONTAINER

Specifies to inquire a setting of the container.

These settings can be used to inquire the component which meets the specified criterion, or the container itself. In most cases, an error will be generated if there is no component matching this criterion in the container.

function map For specifying the component to inquire by a unique identifier
Click to summarizeValue Description
Click to summarize

Specifies to control the component, in the container, which has the specified buffer identifier. An error will be generated if the container does not have a component with this buffer identifier.

(summarize)
Parameters

Specifies the MIL identifier of the component to control.
Click to summarize

Specifies to control the component, in the container, at the specified index. An error will be generated if the container does not have a component at this index.

(summarize)
Parameters

Specifies the index of the component to control.

These settings can be used to inquire the component with the specified component type. In most cases, an error will be generated if there is no component, or more than one component, matching this criterion in the container.

function map For specifying the component to inquire by component type
Click to summarizeValue Description
Click to summarize M_COMPONENT_CONFIDENCE

Specifies that the component stores confidence information for the M_COMPONENT_RANGE or M_COMPONENT_DISPARITY component of the container. Coordinates associated with the confidence value 0 are considered invalid data and will not be used by 3D image processing functions.

A confidence component is associated with a range or disparity component in the same container when there are no other range, disparity, or confidence components in the container. If there is more than one range, disparity, and/or confidence component in a container (for example, because a single grab into the container transmitted multiple range and confidence components), you will need to either create a child container which contains only the required components using MbufChildContainer(), or free the extra components using MbufFreeComponent().

(summarize)
Click to summarize M_COMPONENT_CUSTOM + n

Specifies that the component has a custom component type, identified by n, where n can be a value between 0 and 254.

You can use custom component types to identify components which store information that does not fit one of the standard component types. In addition, some cameras transmit components with custom component types. Refer to your camera manual to determine what type of information is stored in transmitted components.

(summarize)
Click to summarize M_COMPONENT_DISPARITY

Specifies that the component stores a disparity map. Each pixel of a disparity map indicates the apparent distance (typically measured in pixel units) between where an object appears in the left and right images captured by a stereoscopic camera.

(summarize)
Click to summarize M_COMPONENT_INFRARED

Specifies that the component stores an intensity image of infrared light.
Click to summarize M_COMPONENT_INTENSITY

Specifies that the component stores an intensity image of visible light.
Click to summarize M_COMPONENT_MESH_MIL

Specifies that the component stores mesh information for the M_COMPONENT_RANGE component of the container.

A mesh component is associated with a range component in the same container when there are no other range or mesh components in that container. A point cloud container which has a mesh component is referred to as a meshed point cloud container.

(summarize)
Click to summarize M_COMPONENT_METADATA

Specifies that the component stores metadata information. Metadata components are used by MIL internally. Typically, you should ignore metadata components in your application.

(summarize)
Click to summarize M_COMPONENT_MULTISPECTRAL

Specifies that the component stores an intensity image where each band represents the intensity of a specific wavelength of light. Unlike an intensity component, a multispectral component might include information about non-visible light.

(summarize)
Click to summarize M_COMPONENT_NORMALS_MIL

Specifies that the component stores normals information for each point in the M_COMPONENT_RANGE component of the container.

A normals component is associated with a range component in the same container when there are no other range or normals components in that container.

(summarize)
Click to summarize M_COMPONENT_RANGE

Specifies that the component stores 3D distance/position information. This can be either a 1-band component that stores a depth map, or a 3-band buffer that stores coordinates of 3D points.

(summarize)
Click to summarize M_COMPONENT_REFLECTANCE

Specifies that the component stores a reflectance map. Each pixel of a reflectance map indicates how much of the light hitting an object at that location is reflected back. Typically, this is an intensity image of the light spectrum used by a 3D sensor to detect 3D distance/position information. Typically, if the map was generated by a laser profiler, each row indicates the detected intensity of the laser for a single scan.

(summarize)
Click to summarize M_COMPONENT_SCATTER

Specifies that the component stores a scatter map. Each pixel of a scatter map indicates how much of the light hitting an object at that location is detected scattering beneath the object's surface.

(summarize)
Click to summarize M_COMPONENT_ULTRAVIOLET

Specifies that the component stores an intensity image of ultraviolet light.
Click to summarize M_COMPONENT_UNDEFINED

Specifies that the component stores information of an unknown type.
InquireType

Specifies the setting to inquire.

See the Parameter associations section for possible values that can be specified.

UserVarPtr
Accepts the address of one of the following (see the Parameter associations section for specifics on which is expected):
  • array of type MIL_ID [optionally, in C++: a reference to a std::vector<MIL_ID> ]
  • array of type MIL_INT64 [optionally, in C++: a reference to a std::vector<MIL_INT64> ]
  • array of type MIL_TEXT_CHAR [optionally, in C++: a reference to a MIL_STRING]
  • MIL_DOUBLE
  • MIL_ID
  • MIL_INT
  • MIL_INT64

Specifies the address in which to return the value of the inquired setting. Since the MbufInquireContainer() function also returns the requested information, you can set this parameter to M_NULL.

See the Parameter associations section for possible values that can be returned.

Parameter associations

The tables below list possible values for the InquireType parameter and possible values returned to the UserVarPtr parameter.

To inquire the container itself, specify M_CONTAINER and one of the following constants.

    Note that during development and at runtime, compression support, particularly for an M_COMPRESS buffer type, requires the presence of a MIL license that grants access to the compression/decompression package. This access is only granted by default with the development license dongle for the full version of MIL. In other cases, you must purchase access to this package separately.
  • [MIL-Lite]
    While an image buffer with an M_KERNEL or an M_STRUCT_ELEMENT attribute are available under MIL-Lite, these attributes are not required for the image buffer to be available to other MIL-Lite functions.
