ElementValue Property

Summary

Gets the string value of the JSON element being read.

Syntax

C++/CLI

public string ElementValue { get; set; }

public: 
property String^ ElementValue { 
   String^ get(); 
   void set (    String^ ); 
}

Property Value

The string value of the JSON element being read.

Remarks

If ElementDataType is ElementDataType.String, then this is will be the value assigned to the DicomElement that will be created. If ElementDataType is ElementDataType.Base64, then ElementValue contains a string that will be decoded accordingly, and then assigned to the DicomElement that will be created. Modifying ElementValue changes the value that will be written for the DicomElement.

Example

using Leadtools.Dicom; 
using Leadtools.Dicom.Common; 
using Leadtools.Dicom.Common.Extensions; 
using Leadtools;

   // Save as JSON to a file with no binary data 
   // For the demo, keep the json output file size small by skipping the pixel data

   ds.LoadJson(jsonFileNameOut, DicomDataSetLoadJsonFlags.None, MyLoadJsonBeforeElementCallback, MyLoadJsonAfterElementCallback); 
 
   // Save the result -- there will be no pixel data 
   ds.Save(dicomFileNameOut, DicomDataSetSaveFlags.None);
