Detailed Description

Base class for implementing DICOM Service Class User functionality.

The class offers support for negotiating associations and sending and receiving arbitrary DIMSE messages on that connection. DcmSCU has built-in C-ECHO support so derived classes do not have to implement that capability on their own.

Warning: This class is EXPERIMENTAL. Be careful to use it in production environment.

◆ checkEVENTREPORTRequest()

virtual Uint16 DcmSCU::checkEVENTREPORTRequest	(	T_DIMSE_N_EventReportRQ &	request,
		DcmDataset *	reqDataset
	)

protectedvirtual

Check given N-EVENT-REPORT request and dataset for validity.

This method is called by handleEVENTREPORTRequest() before sending the response in order to determine the DIMSE status code to be used for the response message.

Parameters

request	[in] The N-EVENT-REPORT request message data structure
reqDataset	[in] The N-EVENT-REPORT request dataset received. Might be NULL.

Returns: DIMSE status code to be used for the N-EVENT-REPORT response. Always returns STATUS_Success (0). Derived classes should, therefore, overwrite this method and return a more appropriate value based on the result of the checks performed.

◆ clearPresentationContexts()

void DcmSCU::clearPresentationContexts ( )

protected

clear list of presentation contexts.

In addition, any currently selected association configuration file is disabled.

◆ closeAssociation()

virtual void DcmSCU::closeAssociation ( const DcmCloseAssociationType closeType )

virtual

Closes the association created by this SCU.

Also resets the current association.

Deprecated:: The use of this method is deprecated. Please use releaseAssociation() or abortAssociation() instead.

Parameters

closeType [in] Define whether to release or abort the association

Reimplemented in DcmTLSSCU.

◆ createStorageFilename()

virtual OFString DcmSCU::createStorageFilename ( DcmDataset * dataset )

protectedvirtual

Helper function that generates a storage filename by extracting SOP Class and SOP Instance UID from a dataset and combining that with the configured storage directory.

The SOP class is used to create an initial two letter abbreviation for the corresponding modality, e.g. CT. An example for a storage filename created by this function is "/storage_dir/CT.1.2.3.4.5" for a CT with SOP Instance UID "1.2.3.4.5". This function might be overwritten to change the filename behaviour completely. This function is only called if the SCU is in DCMSCU_STORAGE_DISK mode.

Parameters

dataset [in] The dataset that should be stored to disk

Returns: Non-empty string if successful, otherwise empty string.

◆ findAnyPresentationContextID()

T_ASC_PresentationContextID DcmSCU::findAnyPresentationContextID	(	const OFString &	abstractSyntax,
		const OFString &	transferSyntax
	)

After a successful association negotiation, this function is called to return the presentation context ID that best matches the desired abstract syntax and transfer syntax (TS).

The function tries to do the following:

If possible finds a presentation context with matching TS
Else then tries to find an explicit VR uncompressed TS presentation context
Else then tries to find an implicit VR uncompressed TS presentation context
Else finally accepts each matching presentation ctx independent of TS.
Warning
This method does not support filtering for a specific role, yet.

Parameters

abstractSyntax [in] The abstract syntax (UID) to look for

◆ handleCGETResponse()

virtual OFCondition DcmSCU::handleCGETResponse	(	const T_ASC_PresentationContextID	presID,
		RetrieveResponse *	response,
		OFBool &	continueCGETSession
	)

virtual

Function handling a single C-GET Response.

This standard handler reads the status of the response and decides whether to receive any further messages related to the original C-GET Request or whether the last response was received or an error occurred.

Parameters

presID	[in] The presentation context the C-GET Response was received on.
response	[in] The response received
continueCGETSession	[out] Defines whether it is decided to wait for further C-GET Responses/C-STORE Requests within this C-GET session

Returns: If no errors occur (dataset response NULL, SCU not connected), this method will return EC_Normal, otherwise error code.

◆ handleCGETSession()

virtual OFCondition DcmSCU::handleCGETSession	(	const T_ASC_PresentationContextID	presID,
		DcmDataset *	dataset,
		OFList< RetrieveResponse >	responses
	)

virtual

Does the logic for switching between C-GET Response and C-STORE Requests.

Sends a C-GET Request on given presentation context and receives list of responses. The full list of responses is returned to the caller. If he is not interested, he can set responses=NULL when calling the function. After sending a C-GET Request, there might be two different responses coming in: C-GET-RSP (optional after each received object and mandatory after the last object) or a mandatory C-STORE for each incoming object that is received due to the request. This function therefore either calls handleCGETResponse() or handleSTORERequest() in order to deal with the incoming message. All other messages lead to an error within this handler. This function can be overwritten by actual SCU implementations but just should work fine for most people.

Parameters

presID	[in] The presentation context ID that should be used. Must be an odd number.
dataset	[in] The dataset containing the information about the object(s) to be retrieved
responses	[out] The incoming C-GET responses for this request. If the caller specifies NULL, no responses will be returned; otherwise there should be at least one final C-GET response (mandatory). C-GET responses after each DICOM object received are optional and may have been omitted by the server.

Returns: EC_Normal if everything went fine, i.e. if request could be send and expected responses (with whatever status) could be received.

◆ handleEVENTREPORTRequest()

virtual OFCondition DcmSCU::handleEVENTREPORTRequest	(	DcmDataset *&	reqDataset,
		Uint16 &	eventTypeID,
		const int	timeout = `0`
	)

virtual

Receives N-EVENT-REPORT request on the currently opened association and sends a corresponding response.

Calls checkEVENTREPORTRequest() in order to determine the DIMSE status code to be used for the N-EVENT-REPORT response.

Parameters

reqDataset	[out] Pointer to the dataset received
eventTypeID	[out] Event Type ID from the command set received
timeout	[in] Optional timeout in seconds for receiving data. This value (if not 0) overwrites the standard DIMSE timeout and also enables the non-blocking mode for receiving the request.

Returns: status, EC_Normal if successful, an error code otherwise

◆ handleFINDResponse()

virtual OFCondition DcmSCU::handleFINDResponse	(	const T_ASC_PresentationContextID	presID,
		QRResponse *	response,
		OFBool &	waitForNextResponse
	)

virtual

This is the standard handler for C-FIND message responses: It just adds up all responses it receives and prints a DEBUG message.

Therefore, it is called for each response received in sendFINDRequest(). The idea is of course to overwrite this function in a derived, actual SCU implementation if required. Thus, after each response, the caller of sendFINDRequest() can decide on its own whether he wants to cancel the C-FIND session, terminate the association, do something useful or whatever. That way this is a more object-oriented kind of callback.

Parameters

presID	[in] The presentation context ID where the response was received on.
response	[in] The C-FIND response received.
waitForNextResponse	[out] Denotes whether SCU should try to receive another response. If set to OFTrue, then sendFINDRequest() will continue waiting for responses. The current implementation does that for all responses do not have status SUCESSS. If set to OFFalse, sendFINDRequest() will return control to the caller.

Returns: EC_Normal, if response could be handled. Error code otherwise. The current implementation always returns EC_Normal.

◆ handleMOVEResponse()

virtual OFCondition DcmSCU::handleMOVEResponse	(	const T_ASC_PresentationContextID	presID,
		RetrieveResponse *	response,
		OFBool &	waitForNextResponse
	)

virtual

This is the standard handler for C-MOVE message responses: It just adds up all responses it receives and prints a DEBUG message.

Therefore, it is called for each response received in sendMOVERequest(). The idea is of course to overwrite this function in a derived, actual SCU implementation if required. Thus, after each response, the caller of sendMOVERequest() can decide on its own whether he wants to cancel the C-MOVE session, terminate the association, do something useful or whatever. Thus this function is a more object-oriented kind of callback.

Parameters

presID	[in] The presentation context ID where the response was received on.
response	[in] The C-MOVE response received.
waitForNextResponse	[out] Denotes whether SCU should try to receive another response. If set to OFTrue, then sendMOVERequest() will continue waiting for responses. The current implementation does that for all responses do not have status Failed, Warning, Success or unknown. If set to OFFalse, sendMOVERequest() will return control to the caller.

Returns: EC_Normal, if response could be handled. Error code otherwise. The current implementation always returns EC_Normal.

◆ notifySENDProgress()

virtual void DcmSCU::notifySENDProgress ( const unsigned long byteCount )

protectedvirtual

This function is called while sending DIMSE messages, i.e. on each PDV of a dataset.

	)

virtual

Sends a C-FIND Request on given presentation context and receives list of responses.

The function receives the first response and then calls the function handleFINDResponse() which gets the relevant presentation context together with the response dataset and status information. Then it waits again for the next response, if there are more to come (i.e. response status is PENDING). In the end, after receiving all responses, the full list of responses is returned to the caller. If he is not interested, he just sets responses=NULL when calling the function. This function can be overwritten by actual SCU implementations but just should work fine for most people.

queryKeys	[in] The dataset containing the query keys to be searched for on the server (SCP).
responses	[out] The incoming C-FIND responses for this request. The caller is responsible for providing a non-NULL pointer for this case. After receiving the results, the caller is responsible for freeing the memory of this variable. If NULL is specified, the responses will be not returned to the caller.

		DcmDataset *	dataset,
		OFList< RetrieveResponse >	responses
	)

virtual

Sends a C-MOVE Request on given presentation context and receives list of responses.

The function receives the first response and then calls the function handleMOVEResponse() which gets the relevant presentation context together with the response dataset and status information. Then it waits again for the next response, if there are more to come (i.e. response status is PENDING). In the end, after receiving all responses, the full list of responses is returned to the caller. If he is not interested, he just sets responses=NULL when calling the function. This function can be overwritten by actual SCU implementations but just should work fine for most people.

Parameters

presID	[in] The presentation context ID that should be used. Must be an odd number.
moveDestinationAETitle	[in] The move destination's AE title, i.e. the one that is used for connection to the storage server.
dataset	[in] The dataset containing the information about the object(s) to be retrieved.
responses	[out] The incoming C-MOVE responses for this request. The caller is responsible for providing a non-NULL pointer for this case. After receiving the results, the caller is responsible for freeing the memory of this variable. If NULL is specified, the responses will not be returned to the caller.

		Uint16 &	rspStatusCode,
		const OFString &	moveOriginatorAETitle = `""`,
		const Uint16	moveOriginatorMsgID = `0`
	)

virtual

This function sends a C-STORE request on the currently opened association and receives the corresponding response then.

If required and supported, the dataset of the SOP instance can be converted automatically to the network transfer syntax that was negotiated (and is specified by the parameter 'presID'). However, this feature is disabled by default. See setDatasetConversionMode() on how to enable it.

Parameters

presID	[in] Contains in the end the ID of the presentation context which was specified in the DIMSE command. If 0 is given, the function tries to find an appropriate presentation context itself (based on SOP class and original transfer syntax of the 'dicomFile' or 'dataset').
dicomFile	[in] The filename of the DICOM file to be sent. Alternatively, a dataset can be given in the next parameter. If both are given the dataset from the file name is used.
dataset	[in] The dataset to be sent. Alternatively, a filename can be specified in the previous parameter. If both are given the dataset from the filename is used.
rspStatusCode	[out] The response status code received. 0 means success, others can be found in the DICOM standard.
moveOriginatorAETitle	[in] If this C-STORE is started due to a C-MOVE request, this parameter informs the C-STORE SCP about the C-MOVE client's AE title.
moveOriginatorMsgID	[in] If this C-STORE is started due to a C-MOVE request, this parameter informs the C-STORE SCP about the C-MOVE message ID.

Returns: EC_Normal if request could be issued and response was received successfully, error code otherwise. That means that if the receiver sends a response denoting failure of the storage request, EC_Normal will be returned.
