SendNGetResponse Method

Summary

Sends an N-GET-RSP message to a peer member of a connection.

Syntax

C++/CLI

public void SendNGetResponse( 
   byte presentationID, 
   int messageID, 
   string affectedClass, 
   string instance, 
   DicomCommandStatusType status, 
   DicomDataSet dataSet 
)

public: 
void SendNGetResponse(  
   byte presentationID, 
   int messageID, 
   String^ affectedClass, 
   String^ instance, 
   DicomCommandStatusType status, 
   DicomDataSet^ dataSet 
)

Parameters

presentationID
The Presentation Context ID. The ID provides information about both the class type of the data and the Transfer Syntax to use when transferring the data.

messageID
The Message ID. Each message sent by a member of a connection should have a unique ID. Since a member of a connection may send several messages, this ID allows that member to identify when a specific request has been completed.

affectedClass
The class affected by the request. This will be a SOP Class or a Meta SOP Class.

instance
The instance of the class. A server may, for example, have three instances of the Nuclear Medicine Class. This value identifies the data with a specific instance.

status
The status of the original request.

dataSet
A DicomDataSet object that contains the Data Set which contains the required elements.

Remarks

SendNGetResponse is called by the SCP in response to a SendNGetRequest call placed by an SCU. This generates a call to OnReceiveNGetResponse on the SCU.
