check whether the given tag requires some special handling regarding the VR (i.e. in case it is undefined and multiple values are possible).
If required, the VR of the given element tag is then updated according to the DICOM standard, e.g. the VR of PixelPaddingValue (if undefined) is set to 'SS' or 'US' depending on the value of PixelRepresentation.

This function reads the first 6 bytes from the input stream and determines the transfer syntax which was used to code the information in the stream.
The decision is based on two questions: a) Did we encounter a valid tag? and b) Do the last 2 bytes which were read from the stream represent a valid VR? In certain special cases, where the transfer syntax cannot be determined without doubt, we want to guess the most likely transfer syntax (see code).
inStream | The stream which contains the coded information. |

comparison operator that compares the value of this object with a given object of the same type.
The tag of the element is also considered as the first component that is compared, followed by the object types (VR, i.e. DCMTK'S EVR) and the comparison of all value components of the object, preferably in the order declared in the object (if applicable). For item values that means that all elements within the items are compared to each other in ascending tag order. This may be an expensive operation.
rhs | the right hand side of the comparison |

This function takes care of group length and padding elements in the current element list according to what is specified in glenc and padenc.
If required, this function does the following two things: a) it calculates the group length of all groups which are contained in this item and sets the calculated values in the corresponding group length elements and b) it inserts a corresponding padding element (or, in case of sequences: padding elements) with a corresponding correct size into the element list.
glenc | Encoding type for group length; specifies what shall be done with group length tags. |
padenc | Encoding type for padding; specifies what shall be done with padding tags. |
xfer | The transfer syntax that shall be used. |
enctype | Encoding type for sequences; specifies how sequences will be handled. |
padlen | The length up to which the dataset shall be padded, if padding is desired. |
subPadlen | For sequences (i.e. sub elements), the length up to which item shall be padded, if padding is desired. |
instanceLength | Number of extra bytes added to the item/dataset length used when computing the padding; this parameter is for instance used to pass the length of the file meta header from the DcmFileFormat to the DcmDataset object. |

virtual |
check if this object contains non-ASCII characters at any nesting level.
Please note that this check is pretty simple and only works for single-byte character sets that do include the 7-bit ASCII codes, e.g. for the ISO 8859 family. In other words: All character codes below 128 are considered to be ASCII codes and all others are considered to be non-ASCII.
checkAllStrings | if true, also check elements with string values not affected by SpecificCharacterSet (0008,0005). By default, only check PN, LO, LT, SH, ST, UC and UT. |

convert all element values that are contained in this item and that are affected by SpecificCharacterSet from the given source character set to the given destination character set.
The defined terms for a particular character set can be found in the DICOM standard, e.g. "ISO_IR 100" for ISO 8859-1 (Latin 1) or "ISO_IR 192" for Unicode in UTF-8. An empty string denotes the default character repertoire, which is ASCII (7-bit). If multiple values are given for 'fromCharset' (separated by a backslash) code extension techniques are used and escape sequences may be encountered in the source string to switch between the specified character sets.
fromCharset | name of the source character set(s) used for the conversion |
toCharset | name of the destination character set used for the conversion. Only a single value is permitted (i.e. no code extensions). |
flags | optional flag used to customize the conversion (see DCMTypes::CF_xxx) |
updateCharset | if OFTrue, the SpecificCharacterSet (0008,0005) element is updated, i.e. the current value is either replaced or a new element is inserted or the existing element is deleted. If OFFalse the SpecificCharacterSet element remains unchanged. |

If not disabled, the source character set is determined automatically from the value of the SpecificCharacterSet (0008,0005) element.

An empty string denotes the default character repertoire, which is ASCII (7-bit).
toCharset | name of the destination character set used for the conversion. Only a single value is permitted (i.e. no code extensions). |

Virtual object copying.
This method can be used for DcmObject and derived classes to get a deep copy of an object. Internally the assignment operator is called if the given DcmObject parameter is of the same type as "this" object instance. If not, an error is returned. This function permits copying an object by value in a virtual way which therefore is different to just calling the assignment operator of DcmElement which could result in slicing the object.

creates new DICOM element from given attribute tag.
Helper function used by DICOM parser (friend of this class) and thus hidden from the public interface. DcmItem's readSubElement() uses this function when reading new elements from input data. This method internally sets the length of the new element, but does not allocate any memory for the element's value. Thus subsequent access to an element created by this method can lead to crashes. DcmItem instead initializes the value itself a bit later during the read process.

this method is only used in container classes, that is, DcmItem and DcmSequenceOfItems.
It returns a pointer to the next object in the list AFTER the given object. If the caller passes NULL, a pointer to the first object in the list is returned. If the given object is not found, the given object is the last one in the list or the list is empty, NULL is returned.

stack | "cursor" for current position in the dataset. The stack will contain a pointer to each dataset, sequence, item and element from the main dataset down to the current element, and is updated upon each call to this method. An empty stack is equivalent to a stack containing a pointer to this object only. |

a complex, stack-based, hierarchical search method.
It allows for a search for a DICOM object with a given attribute within a given container, hierarchically, from a starting position identified through a cursor stack.
xtag | the DICOM attribute tag we are searching for |
resultStack | Depending on the search mode (see below), this parameter either serves as an input and output parameter, or as an output parameter only (the latter being the default). When used as an input parameter, the cursor stack defines the start position for the search within a hierarchical DICOM dataset. Upon successful return, the stack contains the position of the element found, in the form of a pointer to each dataset, sequence, item and element from the main dataset down to the found element. |
mode | search mode, controls how the search stack is handled. In the default mode, ESM_fromHere, the stack is ignored on input, and the search starts in the object for which this method is called. In the other modes, the stack is used both as an input and an output parameter and defines the starting point for the search. |
