Syntax

C++

public void GenerateMetadataJson( 
   DicomDataSetSaveJsonFlags flags, 
   MetadataScope scope 
)

Public Sub GenerateMetadataJson( 
   ByVal flags As DicomDataSetSaveJsonFlags, 
   ByVal scope As MetadataScope 
)

public:  
   void GenerateMetadataJson( 
      DicomDataSetSaveJsonFlags^ flags, 
      MetadataScope^ scope 
   )

flags

Flags that affect how binary data and other information is saved in the JSON output file.

scope

An enumeration that specifies if the count is for existing, missing, or all JSON metadata records.

Remarks

This method iterates through all instances stored in the Instance database table.

The scope parameter determines if metadata is generated for a DICOM instance.

If scope is MetadataScope.All then JSON metadata is generated for all instances in the Instance table.
If scope is MetadataScope.Existing then JSON metadata is generated only for existing metadata instances in the MetadataJson table.
If scope is MetadataScope.Missing then JSON metadata is generated only for instances in the Instance table that do not have corresponding JSON metadata.
