LDicomNet::SendNSetRequest

Summary

Sends an N-GET-RSP message to a peer member of a connection. This function is available in the PACS Imaging Toolkit.

Syntax

#include "ltdic.h"

L_INT LDicomNet::SendNSetRequest(nPresentationID, nMessageID, pszClass, pszInstance, pDS)

Parameters

L_UCHAR nPresentationID

Presentation ID. The presentation ID provides information about both the class type of the data and the transfer syntax to use when transferring the data.

L_UINT16 nMessageID

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.

L_TCHAR * pszClass

Class affected by the request. This will be an SOP Class or an SOP MetaClass.

L_TCHAR * pszInstance

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.

LDicomDS *pDS

Data set that contains the new information to set.

Returns

Value Meaning
0 SUCCESS
>0 An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.

Comments

Calling this function generates a call to LDicomNet::OnReceiveNSetRequest on the SCP. The SCP should respond by calling LDicomNet::SendNSetResponse which will generate a call to LDicomNet::OnReceiveNSetResponse.

Example

This example sends an N-Set request to the server that changes the patient id of an SOP Instance
In this example:

  1. LMyDicomNet is a class derived from LDicomNet
  2. LMyDicomNet has the following member variables:
    m_nClientOrServer: can be (STATUS_NONE, STATUS_SERVER, STATUS_CLIENT)
    identifies the LMyDicomNet object as a server or a client
    m_nDataCommand: can be (COMMAND_C_MOVE,COMMAND_C_GET)
    set so the server knows how a C-Store Response was generated
  3. m_pDicomNet points to a valid LMyDicomNet object
    LMyDicomNet *m_pDicomNet

  4. A connection exists between client and server

  5. An association exists between the client and server
