PeerAddress Property
See Also  Example
Leadtools.Dicom Namespace > DicomNet Class : PeerAddress Property



Gets the IP address of the peer computer of the connection (the SCU's address).

Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration) 
Public ReadOnly Property PeerAddress As String
Visual Basic (Usage)Copy Code
Dim instance As DicomNet
Dim value As String
 
value = instance.PeerAddress
C# 
public string PeerAddress {get;}
C++/CLI 
public:
property String^ PeerAddress {
   String^ get();
}

Return Value

The IP address of the peer computer of the connection (the SCU's address).

Example

This is a comprehensive sample that shows how to send data over a DICOM connection.
