storescp and multiple connections

[cpisto]

After a brief look at the storescp code, I do not see that it forks or uses threads to handle multiple network connections, is this correct?

If so, can storescp be run via inetd or some similar multiplexer so that it may handle multiple connections?

Thanks in advance

Your observation is correct: "storescp" does not support multiple associations (in contrast to "imagectn").

And to your second question: No, unfortunately, "storescp" cannot be run via (x)inetd - at least not without some modifications. This is because "storescp" does not expect to get an open socket when it is called.

And what about imagectn? Can imagectn be started by (x)inetd?

Thank you

Some time ago we have received patches of a developer who has managed to get storescp working from inetd, and I hope we'll be able to include that into the next release (DCMTK 3.5.4). Don't ask me for a publication date, though.
