L_DicomSetFloatValue

#include "Ltdic.h"

L_BOOL EXT_FUNCTION L_DicomSetFloatValue(hDS, pElement, pValue, nCount)

HDICOMDS hDS;

/* a DICOM handle */

pDICOMELEMENT pElement;

/* pointer to a DICOMELEMENT structure */

L_FLOAT * pValue;

/* pointer to a float */

L_UINT32 nCount;

/* number of values to set */

Sets the float value(s) of a Data Element.

Parameter

Description

hDS

A DICOM handle.

pElement

Pointer to a DICOMELEMENT structure within the Data Set.

pValue

Pointer to a float that contains the float value(s) to set. If you want to set multiple values in the Value Field, put all float values in pValue and set nCount to the appropriate number of values.

nCount

Value that indicates the number of values to set in the Value Field. If you want to set multiple values in the Value Field, put all the float values in pValue and set nCount to the appropriate number.

Returns

TRUE

The float value(s) were set successfully.

FALSE

Could not set the float value(s) of the Data Element.

Comments

Note: You must allocate the memory for pValue.

If you want to set more than one value in the Value Field of the Data Element, put all the float values in an array of float values, set pValue to the address of the array, and set nCount to the corresponding number of entries. For example, if you wish to set three float values in the Value Field of the Data Element, create an array of floats containing the three float values, set pValue to the address of the array, and set nCount to three.

If more than one value is stored in the Value Field of the Data Element, you must set all values at the same time.

This function can be called only if the Value Representation of the Data Element is VR_FL. For more information about Value Representations, refer to Default Value Representation Table.
