Retrieve a registered fragment service or resource.

Retrieves a previously registered fragment service or resource by its type and optional identifier. Returns nullptr if no service/resource is found with the specified type and identifier.

Note that any changes to the service retrieval logic in this method should be synchronized with the implementation in Fragment::service() method to maintain consistency.

Returns: The shared pointer to the service/resource, or nullptr if not found or if type casting fails.

Template parameters

ServiceT

typename

The type of the service/resource to retrieve. Must inherit from either Resource or FragmentService. Defaults to DefaultFragmentService if not specified.

Parameters

std::string_viewDefaults to ""

The identifier of the service/resource. If empty, retrieves by type only.

This is a helper method for Python bindings to retrieve a service by its C++ type info.

Returns: The shared pointer to the base service, or nullptr if not found.

Parameters

service_type

const std::type_info &

The type info of the service/resource to retrieve.

std::string_viewDefaults to ""

The identifier of the service/resource. If empty, retrieves by type only.

Static methods

register_converter

template <typename typeT>
static void holoscan::ComponentBase::register_converter()

If an operator or resource has an argument with a custom type, the argument setter must be registered using this method.

The argument setter is used to set the value of the argument from the YAML configuration.

This method can be called in the initialization phase of the operator/resource (e.g., initialize()). The example below shows how to register the argument setter for the custom type (Vec3):

It is assumed that YAML::convert<T>::encode and YAML::convert<T>::decode are implemented for the given type. You need to specialize the YAML::convert<> template class.

For example, suppose that you had a Vec3 class with the following members:

You can define the YAML::convert<Vec3> as follows in a ‘.cpp’ file:

Please refer to the yaml-cpp documentation for more details.

Template parameters

typeT

typename

The type of the argument to register.

Example

void MyOp::initialize() {
  register_converter<Vec3>();
}

Example

struct Vec3 {
  // make sure you have overloaded operator==() for the comparison
  double x, y, z;
};

Example

namespace YAML {
template<>
struct convert<Vec3> {
  static Node encode(const Vec3& rhs) {
    Node node;
    node.push_back(rhs.x);
    node.push_back(rhs.y);
    node.push_back(rhs.z);
    return node;
  }
  static bool decode(const Node& node, Vec3& rhs) {
    if(!node.IsSequence() || node.size() != 3) {
      return false;
    }
    rhs.x = node[0].as<double>();
    rhs.y = node[1].as<double>();
    rhs.z = node[2].as<double>();
    return true;
  }
};
}

register_argument_setter

template <typename typeT>
void holoscan::ComponentBase::register_argument_setter()

Please refer to the documentation of register_converter() for more details.

Template parameters

typename

The type of the argument to register.
