LDicomNet::SetSocketOptions

#include "ltdic.h"

L_INT LDicomNet::SetSocketOptions(pOptions)

pDICOMSOCKETOPTIONS pOptions;

/* pointer to a structure */

Sets the socket options used in a LDicomNet object. This feature is available in version 16 or higher.

Parameter	Description
pOptions	Pointer to a structure that contains the options to used when creating a socket for DICOM communication.

Returns

SUCCESS	The function was successful.
< 1	An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.

Comments

This method is used to set options in the socket that will be created when calling LDicomNet::Connect on a LDicomNet object. Internally, the socket is created when calling LDicomNet::Connect. Therefore, LDicomNet::SetSocketOptions method should be called before calling LDicomNet::Connect.

For more information about sockets, see the MSDN Winsock documentation.
