L_DicomSetAsyncOperations

#include "ltdic.h"

L_LTDIC_API L_INT L_DicomSetAsyncOperations(hPDU, bEnabled, nInvoked, nPerformed)

Enables or disables Asynchronous Operation support. It also sets the number of operations that can be invoked if enabled.

Parameters

HDICOMPDU hPDU

A DICOM Associate handle.

L_BOOL bEnabled

Flag that indicates whether to enable or disable Asynchronous Operations. Possible values are:

Value	Meaning
TRUE	Enable Asynchronous Operations.
FALSE	Disable Asynchronous Operations.

L_UINT16 nInvoked

The number of operations (messages) that can be sent without a response.

L_UINT16 nPerformed

The number of Asynchronous Operations performed.

Returns

Value	Meaning
DICOM_SUCCESS	The function was successful.
>0	An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.

Comments

If a DICOM Associate connection does not support Asynchronous Operations, then an Application Entity must wait for the response from one message before sending another. If Asynchronous Operations are supported, multiple messages may be sent without waiting for a response. The number of messages that may be sent is set using L_DicomSetAsyncOperations.

To determine the number of Asynchronous Operations that may be invoked without a response, call L_DicomGetInvokedOperations. To determine the number of operations that have been completed, call L_DicomGetPerformedOperations.
