Remarks

When one of the DicomNet.SendXXX methods is called, the message is not sent immediately. It is placed in a network queue and sent later. When the data is actually sent, this method is called to let the calling AE know that the data has been sent.

To customize this method, you must derive a class from DicomNet and override this method.

Requirements

Target Platforms: Silverlight 3.0, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003 family, Windows Server 2008 family, Windows Vista, Windows 7, MAC OS/X (Intel Only)
