Summary

Specifies flags to be used with the SaveXml methods.

Syntax

C++/CLI

[FlagsAttribute()] 
public enum DicomDataSetSaveXmlFlags

[FlagsAttribute()] 
public enum class DicomDataSetSaveXmlFlags

Members

Value	Member	Description
0x00000000	None	Pass this value if you do not want to use any other flags. The default values will be used.
0x00000001	IgnoreBinaryData	If a DICOM element contains binary data, do not write the binary data to the output XML file. The element itself is still exported, but has no data.
0x00000002	IgnoreAllData	Do not write any data (binary, text, etc.) for the DICOM elements to the output XML file. All elements are still exported, but have no data.
0x00000004	EncodeBinaryBase64	Encode all binary data as Base64. This is the default behavior.
0x00000008	EncodeBinaryBinHex	Encode all binary data as BinHex. This overrides the default behavior of encoding binary data as Base64.
0x00000010	TagWithCommas	When writing DICOM tags to the output XML file, use commas. For example, write the tag for SOPClassUID as '0008,0016' instead of '00080016'
0x00000020	TrimWhiteSpace	When writing data to the output XML file, trim leading and trailing white spaces.
0x00000040	NativeDicomModel	Use as the XML output format the Native DICOM model described in PS3.19 of the DICOM Specification. For an example, refer to SaveXmlData.BinaryType.
0x00000080	WriteFullEndElement	Write the full XML end element, instead of a single element (i.e. instead of ).
0x00000100	IgnorePixelData	Do not include the pixel data element in the resulting XML.
0x00000200	InlineBinary	Encode all binary data as InlineBinary, which is coded as Base64 with a line break after every 76 characters. The following flags are only used with the Native DICOM Model, and affect how binary data is written. Unless the NativeDicomModel is also included, all of the following flags are ignored. Callers can pass one or more of the three flags. If more than one of the flags is passed, precedence is given in the order that they appear below. • InlineBinary • BulkDataUri • BulkDataUuid Passing more than one flag will cause the SaveXmlCallback to behave differently. For example, passing BulkDataUri and BulkDataUuid will cause the SaveXmlCallback to generate values for BulkDataUri and BulkDataUuid. If none of these three flags is passed, the default behavior is BulkDataUuid.
0x00000400	BulkDataUri	Write all binary data as BulkDataUri, with a dummy Uri. The following flags are only used with the Native DICOM Model, and affect how binary data is written. Unless the NativeDicomModel flag is also included, all of the following flags are ignored. Callers can pass one or more of the following three flags. If more than one of the flags is passed, precedence is given in the order that they appear below. • InlineBinary • BulkDataUri • BulkDataUuid Passing more than one flag will cause the SaveXmlCallback to behave differently. For example, passing BulkDataUri and BulkDataUuid will cause the SaveXmlCallback to generate value BulkDataUri and BulkDataUuid. If none of these three flags is passed, the default behavior is BulkDataUuid. For an example, refer to BulkDataUri.
0x00000800	BulkDataUuid	Write all binary data as BulkData, with a dummy uuid attribute. This is the default behavior. The following flags are only used with the Native DICOM Model, and affect how binary data is written. Unless the NativeDicomModel is also included, all of the following flags are ignored. Callers can pass one or more of the three flags. If more than one of the flags is passed, precedence is given in the order that they appear below. • InlineBinary • BulkDataUri • BulkDataUuid Passing more than one flag will cause the SaveXmlCallback to behave differently. For example, passing BulkDataUri and BulkDataUuid will cause the SaveXmlCallback to generate values for both BulkDataUri and BulkDataUuid. If none of these three flags is passed, the default behavior is BulkDataUuid. For an example, refer to InlineBinary.
0x00001000	NativeNoModifyPrivateElements	PS3.19 of the DICOM Specification states that a Private Data Element has the form gggg00ee, where the two most significant hexadecimal values of the element number are set to 00. Pass the 'NativeNoModifyPrivateElements' flag to preserve the upper two most significant hexadecimal values of the element.
0x00008000	Base64NoLineBreaks	Used with the InlineBinary enum to encode binary data as Base64 no line breaks. Without this flag, encoded Base64 data has a line break after every 76 characters.
0x00010000	IgnoreMetaData	Do not write the DICOM (0002,0001) File Meta Information Version element
