Comments

When an SCU requests a connection by calling LDicomNet::Connect, a call to the LDicomNet::OnAccept function is generated on the SCP. Within the LDicomNet::OnAccept function the SCP can decide whether to accept the connection or not. If the connection is accepted, LDicomNet::Accept is called. This generates a call to the LDicomNet::OnConnect function on the SCU, letting the SCU know the connection has been made.

You should always accept a connection request. Once the connection is made you can check the SCU and close the connection if you do not wish to maintain it. Since the connection requests are queued, if you do not accept a connection, it remains in the queue. When the next request is received, it is placed in the queue behind the first request. Calling LDicomNet::Accept at this point will connect the first request, not the second, since the first request is still in the queue.
