#include "Ltdic.h"

static pDICOMIOD LDicomIOD::GetFirst(pIOD, bTree)

Returns a pointer to the first item in the IOD Structure.

Parameters

pDICOMIOD pIOD

Pointer to a DICOMIOD structure within the IOD Structure. A pointer to the DICOMIOD structure that contains the first item in the IOD Structure will be returned.

L_BOOL bTree

Flag that indicates how the IOD Structure will be evaluated. Possible values are:

Value	Meaning
TRUE	Evaluate the IOD Structure as a tree.
FALSE	Evaluate the IOD Structure as a list.

Returns

Value	Meaning
!NULL	A pointer to a DICOMIOD structure that contains the first item in the IOD Structure.
NULL	The IOD Structure is empty.

Comments

If the IOD Structure is evaluated as a tree structure, this function returns the first item on the same level as pIOD with the same parent as pIOD.

NOTE: The numbering of the items in this first illustration is arbitrary and does not imply order.

If the passed pointer points to	The function returns a pointer to
Item 1	Item 2
Item 3	Item 4
Item 5	Item 5
Item 6	Item 7
NULL	Item 2

If the IOD Structure is evaluated as a list, the first item in the list is returned.

NOTE: The numbering of the items in this illustration does indicate the order of the items when the IOD Structure is evaluated as a list.

If the passed pointer points to	The function returns a pointer to
NULL	Item 1
Item 12	Item 1
Item 14	Item 1
Item 22	Item 1
Item 25	Item 1

This example displays the list of the IOD table.

L_VOID ShowList() 
{ 
   pDICOMIOD pIOD = LDicomIOD::GetFirst(NULL, FALSE);

   { 
      OutputDebugString(pIOD->pszName); 
      OutputDebugString(TEXT("\n")); 
 
      pIOD = LDicomIOD::GetNext(pIOD, TRUE); 
   } 
} 
 
L_INT LDicomIOD_GetFirstExample()
