Detailed Description

This program reads a Cifti file from argv[1], and writes it out to argv[2] using 8-bit unsigned integer and data scaling. It uses a single CiftiFile object to do this, for simplicity - to see how to do something similar with two objects, which is more relevant for how you would do processing on cifti files, see rewrite.cxx.

#include "CiftiFile.h"
#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
using namespace std;
using namespace cifti;
int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
if (argc < 3)
{
cout << "usage: " << argv[0] << " <input cifti> <output cifti>" << endl;
cout << " rewrite the input cifti file to the output filename, using uint8 and data scaling, little-endian." << endl;
return 1;
}
try
{
CiftiFile inputFile(argv[1]);//on-disk reading by default
inputFile.setWritingDataTypeAndScaling(NIFTI_TYPE_UINT8, -1.0, 6.0);//tells it to use this datatype to best represent this specified range of values [-1.0, 6.0] whenever this instance is written
inputFile.writeFile(argv[2], CiftiVersion(), CiftiFile::LITTLE);//if this is the same filename as the input, CiftiFile actually detects this and reads the input into memory first
//otherwise, it will read and write one row at a time, using very little memory
//inputFile.setWritingDataTypeNoScaling(NIFTI_TYPE_FLOAT32);//this is how you would revert back to writing as float32 without rescaling
} catch (CiftiException& e) {
cerr << "Caught CiftiException: " + AString_to_std_string(e.whatString()) << endl;
return 1;
}
return 0;
