LDicomNet::CloseForced

#include "ltdic.h"

L_INT LDicomNet::CloseForced (bForced)

L_BOOL bForced;

/* flag */

Closes an ISCL connection. This function is available in the PACS Imaging toolkits.

Parameter

Description

bForced

Flag that indicates whether to force the disconnection. Possible values are:

 

Value

Meaning

 

TRUE

Kill the connection. (Force the disconnection.)

 

FALSE

Request disconnection. The disconnection can be refused by a peer.

Returns

DICOM_SUCCESS

Success.

>0

An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.

Comments

When bForced is set to TRUE, the connection is closed immediately. Therefore, it is best to determine if the ISCL message queue is empty before calling this function. To determine whether the ISCL queue is empty, use the LDicomNet::IsISCLQueueEmpty function.

Please note that LDicomNet::CloseForced (FALSE) is queued in the ISCL message queue. (It will be processed later.) LDicomNet::CloseForced (TRUE) is immediate, however.
