Parameters

parameters

A DicomFilmSessionParameters object that specifies the parameters of the Film Session to be created. If this is set to a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic), then the request will be sent to the Print SCP without specifying any parameters (Attributes).

colorPrintManagement

If either the Basic Grayscale Print Management Meta SOP Class or the Basic Color Print Management Meta SOP Class (but not both) is supported on the Association, then this parameter will be ignored and the request will be to create an Instance of the Basic Film Session SOP Class of the Meta SOP Class supported. If both Meta SOP Classes are supported then: If colorPrintManagement is true, the request will be to create an Instance of the Basic Film Session SOP Class of the Basic Color Print Management Meta SOP Class; otherwise, the request will be to create an Instance of the Basic Film Session SOP Class of the Basic Grayscale Print Management Meta SOP Class.

Once a Film Session is created, the method CreateFilmBox can then be used to create one or more Film Boxes in the new Film Session. Notice that only one Film Session can be handled on the Association at any time.

The method will not return until it receives the response of the Print SCP, or an error occurs. The method GetLastOperationStatus can be used to obtain the status code specified in the response of the Print SCP. If the method CreateFilmSession is successful, the Film Session was created successfully, with either a Success or Warning status code in the response of the Print SCP.

Having the Film Session created, the method GetFilmSessionInstanceUid can be used to obtain its SOP Instance UID. Also, the methods UpdateFilmSession, PrintFilmSession, and DeleteFilmSession can be used to update, print, and delete the Film Session, respectively.

The parameter parameters specifies the parameters to be used when creating the Film Session. In the passed object, if a string property is a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic), then the corresponding Attribute will not be included in the request to the Print SCP. Similarly, if a numeric property is negative, the corresponding Attribute will not be included in the request. If parameters is set to a null reference, then the request will be sent without specifying any parameters.

All the rest of the basic Print Management methods will adopt the Meta SOP Class of the created Basic Film Session SOP Instance.

Target Platforms: Windows 7, Windows Vista SP1 or later, Windows XP SP3, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core supported with SP1 or later), Windows Server 2003 SP2
