How to use this library and the documentation

Different layers of the library are covered in different sections of the documentation. Here are some good starting points for the different layers:

Generic dataflow layer

If you would like to implement Dataflow support for the dataflow framework you are working with, see the example showing how the VTK support layer was developed.
If you are interested in developing generic code on top of the dataflow layer, see the concepts documentation.

Dataflow.Signals layer

For examples of how the Dataflow.Signals layer can be used, see:

The example on developing a distributed dataflow application.
The example on developing an image processing network.
The Dataflow.Signals documentation.

Dataflow.Blueprint layer

The development of this layer is ongoing. To find out more about it, see:

The example on run-time reflection and connectivity modeling.
The example of a GUI dataflow editor built on top of Dataflow.Blueprint
The Dataflow.Blueprint documentation.
