ModulatedScanModeType accessors missing from latest 3.6.1

DICOM 2016c included a new attribute ModulatedScanModeType for RT Ion Plans. The tag is included in the latest DICOM Data Dictionary, but there are no accessors for this tag.

Hi,

you're right. This part of the DCMTK API is generated from the standard. We will update this (i.e. re-generate, test and update DCMTK) as time permits.

For now you could derive from DRTIonBeamSequence and add the attribute's accessors and adapted read/write functions yourself. Later then, you could "invisibly" remove your own class and use the DRTIonBeamSequence API once its updated.

Best,
Michael

To the OP: As Michael said, we update the automatically generated "dcmrt" header and source files as time permits; usually, once a year. Last update was end of last year (as you can read in the copyright header of each generated file):

Yesterday, I've updated the "dcmrt" module for the latest edition of the DICOM standard (2016d), i.e. ModulatedScanModeType is now also supported.
