/**
 * @class   vtkSimpleImageToImageFilter
 * @brief   Generic image filter with one input.
 *
 * vtkSimpleImageToImageFilter is a filter which aims to avoid much
 * of the complexity associated with vtkImageAlgorithm (i.e.
 * support for pieces, multi-threaded operation). If you need to write
 * a simple image-image filter which operates on the whole input, use
 * this as the superclass. The subclass has to provide only an execute
 * method which takes input and output as arguments. Memory allocation
 * is handled in vtkSimpleImageToImageFilter. Also, you are guaranteed to
 * have a valid input in the Execute(input, output) method. By default,
 * this filter
 * requests it's input's whole extent and copies the input's information
 * (spacing, whole extent etc...) to the output. If the output's setup
 * is different (for example, if it performs some sort of sub-sampling),
 * ExecuteInformation has to be overwritten. As an example of how this
 * can be done, you can look at vtkImageShrink3D::ExecuteInformation.
 * For a complete example which uses templates to support generic data
 * types, see vtkSimpleImageToImageFilter.
