LAnnContainer::Insert

#include "ltwrappr.h"

virtual L_INT LAnnContainer::Insert(LAnnObject, bStripContainer=FALSE)

LAnnotation& LAnnObject;

/* the annotation object to insert */

L_BOOL bStripContainer;

/* flag that indicates whether to insert a container */

Inserts the specified annotation object into the Container. This function is available in the Document/Medical Toolkits.

Parameter

Description

LAnnObject

The annotation object to insert.

bStripContainer

Flag that indicates whether to insert a container. Possible values are:

 

Value

Meaning

 

TRUE

If the LAnnObject parameter specifies a container, only the objects in the container will be inserted into the new container. In this case, the container specified in LAnnObject is destroyed.

 

FALSE

If the LAnnObject parameter specifies a container, the container and all objects within the container (objects and other containers ) will be inserted into the new container.

 

 

If the LAnnObject parameter specifies an object, that object will be inserted into the new container.

Returns

SUCCESS

The function was successful.

< 1

An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.

Comments

If LAnnObject is a single annotation object, set bStripContainer to FALSE. That way the object itself is inserted.

If LAnnObject is a container, setting bStripContainer to TRUE will insert only the objects within the container, not the container itself.

If LAnnObject is a container, setting bStripContainer to FALSE will insert the container and all objects within the container.
