Detailed Description

Provides classes and functions to discover and enumerate devices, interfaces, and GenTL producer libraries, allowing users to query available hardware and system modules.

Function Documentation

CollectCTIPaths()

std::vector< std::string > peak::core::EnvironmentInspector::CollectCTIPaths ( )

inlinestatic

Collects producer library paths found in the current environment.

Select a *.cti file from this list of paths and use it with ProducerLibrary::Open().

Note

This function depends on the architecture your application is compiled for. This means you are getting the paths for the 32-bit producer libraries if your application is compiled for a 32-bit system and the paths for the 64-bit producer libraries if your application is compiled for a 64-bit system.

Returns

Producer library paths found in the current environment

Exceptions

NotFoundException	The environment variable GENICAM_GENTL32_PATH / GENICAM_GENTL64_PATH was not found or was empty when scanning for environment ProducerLibraries.
