Detailed Description

type definitions for the dcmdata module

Enumeration Type Documentation

E_EncodingType

enum E_EncodingType

encoding type for sequences and sequence items

Enumerator
EET_ExplicitLength	defined length
EET_UndefinedLength	undefined length

E_FileReadMode

enum E_FileReadMode

mode for file reading

Enumerator
ERM_autoDetect	auto detect: fileformat or dataset
ERM_dataset	read as dataset (assume no meta header present)
ERM_fileOnly	read file format only, refuse if no meta-header
ERM_metaOnly	read meta-header only, do not read the dataset

E_FileWriteMode

enum E_FileWriteMode

mode for file writing

Enumerator
EWM_fileformat	write as fileformat (update only missing information, this is the old behavior)
EWM_dataset	write as dataset (without meta header)
EWM_updateMeta	write as fileformat and update required information (e.g. SOP Class/Instance UID)
EWM_createNewMeta	write as fileformat and create new meta header (do not retain existing information)
EWM_dontUpdateMeta	write as fileformat but don't update the meta header (please be careful!)

E_GrpLenEncoding

enum E_GrpLenEncoding

handling of group length elements when reading/writing a dataset

Enumerator
EGL_noChange	no change of group length values, WARNING: DO NOT USE THIS VALUE FOR WRITE OPERATIONS
EGL_withoutGL	remove group length tags
EGL_withGL	add group length tags for every group
EGL_recalcGL	recalculate values for existing group length tags

E_PaddingEncoding

enum E_PaddingEncoding

handling of dataset trailing padding

Enumerator
EPD_noChange	no change of padding tags
EPD_withoutPadding	remove all padding tags
EPD_withPadding	add padding tags

E_SearchMode

enum E_SearchMode

search mode for hierarchical search operations

Enumerator
ESM_fromHere	start search from current object
ESM_fromStackTop	start search from object pointed to by stack top
ESM_afterStackTop	start search from object following the object pointed to by stack top

E_TransferState

enum E_TransferState

object state during transfer (read/write) operations

Enumerator
ERW_init	object prepared for transfer, no data transferred yet
ERW_ready	object transfer completed
ERW_inWork	object transfer in progress
ERW_notInitialized	object not prepared for transfer operation
