Syntax

C++

public bool SetShortValue( 
   DicomElement element, 
   short[] value, 
   int count 
)

Public Overloads Function SetShortValue( _ 
   ByVal element As DicomElement, _ 
   ByVal value() As Short, _ 
   ByVal count As Integer _ 
) As Boolean

public: 
bool SetShortValue(  
   DicomElement^ element, 
   array<short>^ value, 
   int count 
)

Parameters

element
An item in the Data Set.

value
Pointer a buffer that contains the short value(s) to set. If you want to set multiple values in the Value Field, put all short values in value and set count to the appropriate number of values.

count
Value that represents the number of values to set in the Value Field. If you want to set multiple values in the Value Field, put all the character values in value and set count to the appropriate number.

Remarks

If you want to set more than one value in the Value Field of the Data Element, put all the short values in value and set count to the corresponding number of entries. For example, if you wish to set three short values in the Value Field of the Data Element, put the three short values in value and set count to three. If more than one value is stored in the Value Field of the Data Element, you must set all values at the same time.

This method can be called only if the Value Representation of the Data Element is:
