MetaSOPClass Property (DicomAssociation)

In This Topic

Determines the Abstract Syntax used for normalised operations

Syntax

Visual Basic
C#
C++/CLI

'Declaration
 
Public Property MetaSOPClass As String

'Usage
 
Dim instance As DicomAssociation
Dim value As String
 
instance.MetaSOPClass = value
 
value = instance.MetaSOPClass

public string MetaSOPClass {get; set;}

public:
property String^ MetaSOPClass {
   String^ get();
   void set (    String^ value);
}

Remarks

Normalised operations, unlike composite operations, are not directly tied to specific abstract syntaxes, but still need to be sent within a negotiated presentation context, which generally relates to a number of related operations, and is known as a Meta SOP Class. This property defines this abstract context, and is therefore used for the selection of an appropriate presentation context, according to those negotiated and available.

If this property is a null string, then the SOP class specified in the normalised operation itself is used, which may be appropriate for some classes, which do not use meta SOP classes for negotiation.

Requirements

Target Platforms: .NET CLR 3.5 or higher
