SetTransfer Method

Summary

Sets a Transfer Syntax for the specified Presentation Context.

Syntax

Objective-C

C++/CLI

public void SetTransfer( 
   byte id, 
   int index, 
   string uid 
)

- (BOOL)setTransferSyntax:(NSString *)uid forID:(uint8_t)ID atIndex:(NSUInteger)index error:(NSError **)error;

public: 
void SetTransfer(  
   byte id, 
   int index, 
   String^ uid 
)

Parameters

id
Presentation Context ID. The ID provides information about both the class type of the data and the Transfer Syntax to use when transferring the data.

index
Index of the Transfer Syntax to set.

uid
The Transfer Syntax Name to set. For a list of possible values, refer to Transfer Syntax Values. The maximum length for this value is 64.

Remarks

A DICOM Associate (Request or Accept) can have multiple Presentation Contexts. A DICOM Associate Request can have multiple Transfer Syntax entries for each Presentation Context. A Transfer Syntax can be set by specifying the ID for the appropriate Presentation Context and the index for the appropriate Transfer Syntax.

Example

This is a comprehensive sample that shows how to use DICOM associates both on the SCP (server) and the SCU (client) sides.
