## Detailed Description

this class implements a sequence of pixel items, i.e.

the data structure DICOM is using to store compressed pixel data. The object behaves very much like a sequence, but uses the pixel data tag (7FE0,0010) and OB value representation with undefined length, and the "items" contained within the sequence are in fact pixel items (class DcmPixelItem) that contain no list of DICOM elements but raw compressed pixel data. The first item in this pixel sequence must always be the offset table.

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

## DcmPixelSequence() [1/3]

DcmPixelSequence::DcmPixelSequence | ( | const DcmTag & | tag | ) |

constructor.

Create new element from given tag.

Parameters

  tag | attribute tag

Referenced by DcmPixelSequence(), clone(), and operator=().

## DcmPixelSequence() [2/3]

DcmPixelSequence::DcmPixelSequence | ( | const DcmPixelSequence & | old | ) |

copy constructor

Parameters

  old | element to be copied

References DcmPixelSequence().

## DcmPixelSequence() [3/3]

DcmPixelSequence::DcmPixelSequence | ( | const DcmTag & | tag,
|  | const Uint32 | len )

protected

constructor.

Create new element from given tag and length. Only reachable from friend classes since construction with length different from 0 leads to a state with length being set but the element's value still being uninitialized. This can lead to crashes when the value is read or written. Thus the method calling this constructor with length > 0 must ensure that the element's value is explicitly initialized, too.

Parameters

  tag | attribute tag
  len | length of the attribute value

## Member Function Documentation

## calcElementLength()

virtual Uint32 DcmPixelSequence::calcElementLength | ( | const E_TransferSyntax | xfer,
|  | const E_EncodingType | enctype )

virtual

calculate the length of this DICOM element when encoded with the given transfer syntax and the given encoding type for sequences.

For elements, the length includes the length of the tag, length field, VR field and the value itself, for items and sequences it returns the length of the complete item or sequence including delimitation tags if applicable.

Warning
  Since calcElementLength() returns a 32 bit integer, an overflow during calculation is possible for some derived classes that actually represent a compound value (e.g. items like DcmPixelItem). Such overflows will be detected, in which case the maximum possible value will be returned instead, coinciding with DCM_UndefinedLength.
  The implementation in DcmPixelData may return zero if no conforming representation exists and set the EC_RepresentationNotFound error flag to indicated it.
  When calculation the length of a sequence or an item containing multiple attributes, the implementation may return DCM_UndefinedLength to indicate a value that can not be encoded as a 32 bit length field. It will even do so if "dcmWriteOversizedSeqsAndItemsUndefined" is disabled, but then also set the EC_SeqOrItemContentOverflow error flag (inside getLength()) to indicated it.

Note
  Just check for zero or DCM_UndefinedLength return value and then have a look at the error flag in either case.

Parameters

  xfer | transfer syntax for length calculation
  enctype | sequence encoding type for length calculation

Returns
  length of DICOM element

Reimplemented from DcmSequenceOfItems.

## canWriteXfer()

virtual OFBool DcmPixelSequence::canWriteXfer | ( | const E_TransferSyntax | newXfer,
|  | const E_TransferSyntax | oldXfer )

virtual

check if this DICOM object can be encoded in the given transfer syntax.

Parameters

  newXfer | transfer syntax in which the DICOM object is to be encoded
  oldXfer | transfer syntax in which the DICOM object was read or created.

Returns
  true if object can be encoded in desired transfer syntax, false otherwise.

Reimplemented from DcmSequenceOfItems.

## changeXfer()

OFCondition DcmPixelSequence::changeXfer | ( | const E_TransferSyntax | newXfer | ) |

changes the transfer syntax of this object to the given one.

This only works if no transfer syntax was defined so far, or if the new and the old one are identical.

Parameters

  newXfer |

Returns
  status, EC_Normal if successful, an error code otherwise

## clone()

virtual DcmObject * DcmPixelSequence::clone | ( |  | ) | const

inline virtual

clone method

Returns
  deep copy of this object

Reimplemented from DcmSequenceOfItems.

References DcmObject::DcmObject(), and DcmPixelSequence().

## copyFrom()

virtual OFCondition DcmPixelSequence::copyFrom | ( | const DcmObject & | rhs | ) |

virtual

Virtual object copying.

This method can be used for DcmObject and derived classes to get a deep copy of an object. Internally the assignment operator is called if the given DcmObject parameter is of the same type as "this" object instance. If not, an error is returned. This function permits copying an object by value in a virtual way which therefore is different to just calling the assignment operator of DcmElement which could result in slicing the object.

Parameters

  rhs | - [in] The instance to copy from. Has to be of the same class type as "this" object

Returns
  EC_Normal if copying was successful, error otherwise

Reimplemented from DcmSequenceOfItems.

References DcmObject::DcmObject().

## getItem()

virtual OFCondition DcmPixelSequence::getItem | ( | DcmPixelItem *& | item,
|  | const unsigned long | num )

virtual

access a pixel item from the pixel sequence.

This method returns a pointer to one of the pixel items in the list, and not a copy.

Parameters

|  | const char * | pixelFileName = NULL,
|  | size_t * | pixelCounter = NULL )

virtual

print all elements of the item to a stream

Parameters

  out | output stream
  flags | optional flag used to customize the output (see DCMTypes::PF_xxx)
  level | current level of nested items. Used for indentation.
  pixelFileName | optional filename used to write the raw pixel data file
  pixelCounter | optional counter used for automatic pixel data filename creation

Reimplemented from DcmSequenceOfItems.

## read()

virtual OFCondition DcmPixelSequence::read | ( | DcmInputStream & | inStream,
|  | const E_TransferSyntax | ixfer,
|  | const E_GrpLenEncoding | glenc = EGL_noChange,
|  | const Uint32 | maxReadLength = DCM_MaxReadLength )

virtual

This function reads the information of all attributes which are captured in the input stream and captures this information in elementList.

Each attribute is represented as an element in this list. If not all information for an attribute could be read from the stream, the function returns EC_StreamNotifyClient.

Parameters

  inStream | The stream which contains the information.
  ixfer | The transfer syntax which was used to encode the information in inStream.
  glenc | Encoding type for group length; specifies what will be done with group length tags.
  maxReadLength | Maximum read length for reading an attribute value.

Returns
  status, EC_Normal if successful, an error code otherwise

## remove() [1/2]

virtual OFCondition DcmPixelSequence::remove | ( | DcmPixelItem *& | item,
|  | const unsigned long | num )

virtual

remove pixel item from list.

If found, the pixel item is not deleted but returned to the caller who is responsible for further management of the DcmPixelItem object.

Parameters

  item | upon success, a pointer to the removed pixel item is returned in this parameter
  num | index number of item, must be < card()

Returns
  EC_Normal if successful, an error code otherwise

## remove() [2/2]

virtual OFCondition DcmPixelSequence::remove | ( | DcmPixelItem * | item | ) |

virtual

remove pixel item from list.

The pixel item is not deleted; the caller is responsible for further management of the DcmPixelItem object.

Parameters

  item | pointer to element to be removed from list

Returns
  EC_Normal if successful, an error code otherwise

## storeCompressedFrame()

virtual OFCondition DcmPixelSequence::storeCompressedFrame | ( | DcmOffsetList & | offsetList,
|  | Uint8 * | compressedData,
|  | Uint32 | compressedLen,
|  | Uint32 | fragmentSize )

virtual

appends a single compressed frame to this DICOM pixel sequence

Parameters

  offsetList | list containing offset table entries. Upon success, an entry is appended to the list. The offset values are always even, so it is expected that odd length pixel items are padded later during writing. The offsets are not stored internally.
  compressedData | pointer to compressed image data (copied), must not be NULL
  compressedLen | number of bytes of compressed image data
  fragmentSize | maximum fragment size (in kbytes) for compression, 0 for unlimited.

Returns
  EC_Normal if successful, an error code otherwise

## write()

virtual

write object to a stream

Parameters

  outStream | DICOM output stream
  oxfer | output transfer syntax
  enctype | encoding types (undefined or explicit length)
  wcache | pointer to write cache object, may be NULL

Returns
  status, EC_Normal if successful, an error code otherwise

## writeJson()

virtual OFCondition DcmPixelSequence::writeJson | ( | STD_NAMESPACE ostream & | out,
|  | DcmJsonFormat & | format )

virtual

write object in JSON format to a stream

Parameters

virtual

special write method for creation of digital signatures

Parameters

  outStream | DICOM output stream
  oxfer | output transfer syntax
  enctype | encoding types (undefined or explicit length)
  wcache | pointer to write cache object, may be NULL

## Member Data Documentation

## Xfer

E_TransferSyntax DcmPixelSequence::Xfer

private

the transfer syntax in which the compressed pixel data maintained by this object is encoded.

This may very well differ from the transfer syntax of the main dataset if this object was created by a compression codec in memory.

The documentation for this class was generated from the following file:
