LoadXml(Stream) Method

Summary
Loads the UIDs contained in stream into the internal DICOM UID Table.
Syntax
C#
VB
C++
public void LoadXml( 
   Stream stream 
) 
Public Overloads Sub LoadXml( _ 
   ByVal stream As Stream _ 
)  
public: 
void LoadXml(  
   Stream^ stream 
)  

Parameters

stream
A Stream that contains the XML data containing the DICOM UIDs to load

Remarks

Beginning with version 18 of the toolkit, you can easily and quickly customize the DICOM UID table by editing the dicTableUid.xml file that is found in the LEADTOOLS Sample Images folder. The dicTableUid.xml file is a human-readable XML file that lists all of the DICOM UIDs currently defined in the DICOM Specification. You can edit this with any text editor (for example, notepad) to add or remove DICOM UIDs. Then call LoadXml and pass the full path of the dicTableUid.xml file, or pass a Stream containing the contents of this file. Note that calling LoadXml will first remove all DICOM UIDs that are already present in the table. For more information, see the topic Working with DICOM Tables

Example

This example loads the DICOM UID table from the dicTableUid.xml file that is shipped with the toolkit.

C#
VB
using Leadtools; 
using Leadtools.Dicom; 
 
 
public void TestDicomUidTable_LoadXml_Stream() 
{ 
   DicomEngine.Startup(); 
 
   //Remove all entries from the table 
   DicomUidTable.Instance.Reset(); 
 
   // Since the table is empty, the count is zero. 
   int count = DicomUidTable.Instance.GetCount(); 
 
   // Load the UID table from the dicTableUid.xml file that ships with the toolkit 
   using (FileStream stream = new FileStream(@"C:\LEADTOOLS21\Resources\Images\DICOM\dicTableUid.xml", FileMode.Open)) 
   { 
      DicomUidTable.Instance.LoadXml(stream); 
 
      // Get the count -- it will be 295 
      count = DicomUidTable.Instance.GetCount(); 
   } 
   DicomEngine.Shutdown(); 
} 
Imports Leadtools

   'Remove all entries from the table 
   DicomUidTable.Instance.Reset() 
 
   ' Since the table is empty, the count is zero. 
   Dim count As Integer = DicomUidTable.Instance.GetCount() 
 
   ' Load the UID table from the dicTableUid.xml file that ships with the toolkit 
   Using stream As New FileStream("C:\LEADTOOLS21\Resources\Images\DICOM\dicTableUid.xml", FileMode.Open) 
      DicomUidTable.Instance.LoadXml(stream) 
 
      ' Get the count -- it will be 295 
      count = DicomUidTable.Instance.GetCount() 
   End Using 
   DicomEngine.Shutdown() 
End Sub
