Pipeline Objects

Pipeline objects use pipeline configuration files to run a series of pipeline components. This section provides code samples showing how to use pipeline objects and pipeline components.

The Pipeline Programming Concepts topic describes what a pipeline is, the sequence of events in a pipeline, and how pipelines can be customized.
