)
static

check whether given string value conforms to the VR "TM" (Time) and to the specified VM.

check whether stored value conforms to the VR and to the specified VM

◆ clone()

virtual DcmObject* DcmTime::clone ( ) const
inlinevirtual

clone method

Returns
deep copy of this object

Reimplemented from DcmByteString.

◆ copyFrom()

virtual OFCondition DcmTime::copyFrom ( const DcmObject rhs)
virtual

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.

Parameters
rhs- [in] The instance to copy from. Has to be of the same class type as "this" object
Returns
EC_Normal if copying was successful, error otherwise

Reimplemented from DcmByteString.

If this function fails or the current element value is empty, the result variable 'formattedTime' is cleared automatically. Please note that if the "Timezone Offset From UTC" attribute (0008,0201) is present, it applies to all TM attributes in the object.
