InsertElementAndSetValue(DicomElement,Boolean,Int64,Object) Method

Show in webframe
Example 







An item in the data set.
true to evaluate the Data Set as a tree; false to evaluate the Data Set as a list.
Tag of the item to find or insert.
value to insert
Finds or inserts (if not found) an element in the data set and sets the value of the element
Syntax
public DicomDataSet InsertElementAndSetValue( 
   DicomElement element,
   bool tree,
   long tag,
   object value
)
'Declaration
 
Public Overloads Function InsertElementAndSetValue( _
   ByVal element As DicomElement, _
   ByVal tree As Boolean, _

   ByVal value As Object _
) As DicomDataSet
'Usage
 
Dim instance As DicomDataSet
Dim element As DicomElement
Dim tree As Boolean
Dim tag As Long
Dim value As Object
Dim value As DicomDataSet
 
value = instance.InsertElementAndSetValue(element, tree, tag, value)

 function Leadtools.Dicom.DicomDataSet.InsertElementAndSetValue(DicomElement,Boolean,Int64,Object)( 
   element ,
   tree ,
   tag ,
   value 
)
public:
DicomDataSet^ InsertElementAndSetValue( 
   DicomElement^ element,
   bool tree,
   int64 tag,
   Object^ value
) 

Parameters

element
An item in the data set.
tree
true to evaluate the Data Set as a tree; false to evaluate the Data Set as a list.
tag
Tag of the item to find or insert.
value
value to insert

Return Value

A reference to the DicomDataSet class (a 'this' pointer)
Remarks

This method is used to set the value of an existing DICOM data set element, or if the existing element does not already exist, to insert the element and then set its value. The value parameter can be any supported DICOM value. For details on the value parameter, see SetValue

This method returns a reference to the DicomDataSet class so that it can be used as part of a fluent interface. After calling this method, the InsertElementAndSetValueResult property contains a value that indiciates the success of the method. For an example of how this can be used efficiently to create a DICOM sequence, see BeginEditSequence(DicomElement,Boolean,Int64)
