L_DicomGetDefaultSocketOptions

Summary

Gets the default socket options. This feature is available in version 16 or higher.

Syntax

L_LTDIC_API L_INT EXT_FUNCTION L_DicomGetDefaultSocketOptions(hNet, pOptions, uStructSize)

Parameters

HDICOMNET hNet

A DICOM Network handle. This is the handle returned from the L_DicomCreateNet function

pDICOMSOCKETOPTIONS pOptions

Pointer to a structure that contains the options to used when creating a socket for DICOM communication

L_UINT uStructSize

Size in bytes, of the structure pointed to by pOptions, for versioning. Use sizeof(DICOMSOCKETOPTIONS).

Returns

Comments

This function is used to get the default socket options that will be used when calling the L_DicomConnect function on an hNet network handle. The default socket options are the options used if you call the L_DicomConnect function without first calling the L_DicomSetSocketOptions function.

This function always returns the same values. This function is different from the L_DicomGetSocketOptions function, which returns the socket options used when the L_DicomSetSocketOptions function was last called.

Internally, the socket is created when calling the L_DicomConnect function.

For more information about sockets, see the MSDN Winsock documentation.
