Description
Sometimes it would be nice to know whether a DcmElement is initialized or not (i.e. a value was explicitly set or not), e.g. when using DcmElements as members in a class to store a value, that is then exported later (for example to a DcmItem).
At the moment, it is not possible to decide whether a DcmElement's value does as initialized or not. This is true for string-based VRs, where the NULL pointer representing the value is interpreted as empty string by methods like getOFString(), returning EC_Normal.
