## Detailed Description

Class for scanning files for concatenations and if desired, load one of them.

If successful, loading produces the merged SOP Instance as a single dataset plus its frames in a separate data structure. The following workflow must be used:

- Call to one of the scan() methods.
- If scanning was successful, call getInfo() to get information about the concatenations found by scan(). getFailedFiles() will return those files who could not be read, do not provide Concatenation information or had other errors.
- Call to the load() method in order to load of the the Concatenations found during scan(). Selection is done via the Concatenations Concatenation UID. The result is made available as a single, merged dataset without Pixel Data attribute and a vector containing all frames of the merged instance.

| virtual

Load Concatenation and merge it into "original" source dataset.

The Concatenation to be loaded is selected by its Concatenation UID. Frames are not written to the dataset's Pixel Data attribute but instead reside in a frame structure provided by the caller (since they could exceed the uncompressed maximum of 4 GB allowed in a single dataset).

Parameters

  concatenationUID | The Concatenation UID of the Concatenation to be loaded
  dataset | The result dataset. The caller must hand in a pointer to a valid dataset, i.e. memory allocation must be done by the caller. During loading, the dataset must not be freed outside this class. However, the caller stays responsible to delete the dataset after usage.
  frames | The resulting frames. Vector should provided empty by the user. The user is responsible for deleting frames after successful operation. If load() fails, this parameter should return an empty vector.

Returns
  EC_Normal if loading Concatenation worked, error otherwise.

Returns
  EC_Normal if deletion was successful, error otherwise

## ◆ prepareTemplate()

## Member Data Documentation

## ◆ m_Result

The dataset that will contain the final merged SOP instance produced by the load() method.

Once a merged instance is provided to the caller, as a result of load(), the caller is responsible for deleting the related memory.
