Generates a random number. This function is available in the Medical Suite toolkits.
|
Parameter |
Description |
|
hNet |
Handle to an existing DICOM Network. This is the handle returned from the L_DicomCreateNet function. |
|
nChallenge |
Pointer to a variable to be updated with the random number generated in the callback. This number is similar to a time stamp. |
|
nParameter |
Value that indicates the current mutual authentication key. |
|
pUserData |
Void pointer that you can use to pass one or more additional parameters that the callback function needs. To use this feature, assign a value to a variable or create a structure that contains as many fields as you need. Then, in this parameter, pass the address of the variable or structure, casting it to L_VOID *. The callback function, which receives the address in its own pUserData parameter, can cast it to a pointer of the appropriate data type to access your variable or structure. If the additional parameters are not needed, you can pass NULL in this parameter. |
Returns
|
DICOM_SUCCESS |
The generation of the random number was successful. |
|
<> DICOM_SUCCESS |
The generation of the random number was not successful. |
Comments
The generation of a random number can use a pool of random (or pseudo-random) data. If the pool is empty, the GetChallenge function may fail. In this case, try to call GetChallenge later in the application, when some random data has been added to the pool.
