GetSignatureUID Method

Summary

Returns the Digital Signature UID (0400,0100) of the specified Digital Signature.

Syntax

C++/CLI

public string GetSignatureUID( 
   DicomElement signatureItem 
)

public: 
String^ GetSignatureUID(  
   DicomElement^ signatureItem 
)

Parameters

signatureItem
The Digital Signatures Sequence Item that corresponds to the Digital Signature. This cannot be null.

Return Value

The Digital Signature UID (0400,0100) of the specified Digital Signature. The return value can be a null reference (Nothing in VB).

Remarks

The Digital Signature UID (0400,0100) under the Digital Signatures Sequence Item of a Digital Signature should uniquely identify the Digital Signature. Call this method to obtain the value of this Data Element. The following methods can also be used to get information about the Digital Signature:

GetSignatureDateTime

GetSignedElementsCount

Example

   // will verify all the Digital Signatures that exist in the Data Set 
   bool ret = dataset.VerifySignature(signatureItem); 
   if (ret == true)

   } 
   msg.AppendFormat("{0}Do you want to save the Certificate of Signer?", Environment.NewLine);
