Startup Method

Summary
Initializes the required data to start the LEADTOOLS DICOM .NET Class Library.
Syntax
C#
C++/CLI
Java
public static void Startup() 
public static void Startup() 
public: 
static void Startup();  
Remarks
  • This static method must be called before calling any other DICOM Class Library methods. This usually occurs at the start of your application.
Example
C#
using Leadtools; 
using Leadtools.Dicom; 
 
 
public void DicomSetGetValueTest() 
{ 
   //Make sure to initialize the DICOM engine, this needs to be done only once  
   //In the whole application
