## Detailed Description

Class for handling JSON format options.

Base class to implement custom formatting. Purpose:

- individual output formatting
- normalization of DecimalString and IntegerString e.g. normalization of leading zeros
- escaping of special JSON control characters
- outputting the correct indention and symbols for "Value", "BulkDataURI", etc.

### Usage Example:

#include "dcmtk/dcmdata/dcjson.h"
// ...
DcmFileFormat fileformat;
if(fileformat.loadFile("test.dcm").good())
{
// print the DICOM file in JSON format
// using the pretty format (muti-line with indention and other whitespace)
fileformat.writeJson(COUT, DcmJsonFormatPretty(OFTrue));
// using the compact (single line, without unneeded whitespace) format
fileformat.writeJson(COUT, DcmJsonFormatCompact(OFTrue));
}
DcmFileFormat
a class handling the DICOM file format (with meta header)
Definition dcfilefo.h:44
DcmFileFormat::writeJson
virtual OFCondition writeJson(STD_NAMESPACE ostream &out, DcmJsonFormat &format)
write object in JSON format.
DcmFileFormat::loadFile
virtual OFCondition loadFile(const OFFilename &fileName, const E_TransferSyntax readXfer=EXS_Unknown, const E_GrpLenEncoding groupLength=EGL_noChange, const Uint32 maxReadLength=DCM_MaxReadLength, const E_FileReadMode readMode=ERM_autoDetect)
load object from a DICOM file.
DcmJsonFormatCompact
Subclass for handling JSON formatted output.
Definition dcjson.h:444
DcmJsonFormatPretty
Subclass for handling JSON formatted output.
Definition dcjson.h:404
OFCondition::good
OFBool good() const
check if the status is OK.
Definition ofcond.h:312

### Implementing a custom formatter:

struct CustomJsonFormat : DcmJsonFormatPretty
{
CustomJsonFormat(const OFBool printMetaInfo = OFTrue)
: DcmJsonFormatPretty(printMetaInfo)
{
}
OFString OFJsonFormatExample::space()
{
// use tabstops instead of spaces for indention
return "\t";
}
}
OFString
a simple string class that implements a subset of std::string.
Definition ofstring.h:76
