DcmSCU::sendSTORERequest fails because unknown original xfer

[jsyri]

I need to load jpg files and send them to the remote server. I can convert image to the dicom format using something like:

Code: Select all

Image2Dcm i2d;
I2DOutputPlug *outPlug = new I2DOutputPlugSC();
I2DImgSource *inputPlug = new I2DJpegSource();
E_TransferSyntax writeXfer =  EXS_JPEGProcess1TransferSyntax;
inputPlug->setImageFile("filename");
DcmDataset *dataset = NULL;
OFCondition result = i2d.convert(inputPlug, outPlug, dataset, writeXfer);

When i try to send resulting dataset to the server using sendStoreRequest, call returns EC_IllegalParameter. This seems to be because
sendStoreRequest tries to get to use getOriginalXfer() to get original transfer transfer syntax (At DcmSCU::getDatasetInfo). As dataset has not been read from anywhere, original transfer syntax seems to be unknown, which results call failing.

Is there a workaround available for this case?

In fact, this issue should have been fixed after the release of DCMTK 3.6.0. So, you should try with the latest snapshot or development version (git).

Thanks for the info. I'll test it.

I updated to the latest snapshot (3.6.1_20120831) and that seems to solve the issue with the transfer syntax. Unfortunately it seems that the image conversion code above doesn't work anymore (EXS_JPEGProcess1TransferSyntax was renamed to EXS_JPEGProcess1) . No error is returned, but resulting dataset seems to be empty. I'll examine this issue more closely later, but if meantime someone happens to know about this issue, I'd be grateful for any pointers to the right direction.

The renaming has been done before with this commit: http://git.dcmtk.org/web?p=dcmtk.git;a= ... d8c90dcd25

Ok the remaining problem turned out to be at the server side configuration. Everything seems to work now. Thanks for the help.
