Reserved.

pszContextIdentifier

Character string that contains the Context Identifier (0008,010F) of the Context Group (for example, "CID 2", "CID 82", "CID 3001", etc.). A Context Group is identified by its Context ID (CID).

pContextGroupVersion

Pointer to a VALUEDATETIME structure that contains the Context Group Version (0008,0106) of the Context Group.

Comments

When the return value of a function is a pointer to a DICOMCONTEXTGROUP structure, none of the members pszContextIdentifier, pszName, and pContextGroupVersion can be NULL.
