SetDateValue(DicomElement,DicomDateValue) Method

Summary
Sets the Date value of a Data Element.
Syntax
C#
C++/CLI
Java
public bool SetDateValue( 
   DicomElement element, 
   DicomDateValue value 
) 
public boolean setDateValue(DicomElement element, DicomDateValue value) 
public: 
bool SetDateValue(  
   DicomElement^ element, 
   DicomDateValue value 
)  

Parameters

element
An item in the Data Set.

value
A DicomDateValue object that contains the Date value to set.

Return Value

true if the Date value was set successfully; otherwise, it is false (the Date value of the Data Element could not be set).

Remarks

This method can be called only if the Value Representation of the Data Element is DicomVRType.DA. For more information about Value Representations, refer to Default Value Representation Table. To set more than one date value, use the SetDateValue overload.
