1 2003-07-02 Benoit Regrain <Benoit.Regrain@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
2 * src/jpeg/libijg8/jconfig.* : JPR bug fix : now compile on both
4 * src/gdcmJpeg.cxx : JPR bug fix : erroneous include
5 * src/win32/gdcmdll.dsp : JPR fix for windows compilation
7 2003-07-02 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
8 * setup.py is again effective on un*x (takes into account the
9 addon of the jpeg library)
10 * Doc/DoxyDevelInstal.txt added (developper's raw documentation)
11 * Doc/Doxy* updated (includes above enhancements)
12 * INSTALL now points to web documentation
14 2003-07-01 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
15 * src/gdcmHeader.h doesn't make unnecessary reference to
17 * gdcmPython/Makefile.am now avoids calling the wrappers for the
20 - to allow compilation with gcc 3.x
21 -- clean up of STL usage (added explicit usage of std::)
22 -- small fixes on exceptions.
23 Note: linking not tested !
24 - clean of doxygen comments to avoid warnings at documentation
26 * vtk/vtkGdcmReader.cxx: g++ warning message clean up (platform
27 dependent convertion).
29 2003-06-20 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
30 * Clean up of previous JPR garbage commit (not even commented in the
32 - Test/Makefile.am removed the reference to unexisting testTS.cxx
33 - moved all jpeg related files from src to src/jpeg/libijg8, with
34 addition/modification of Makefile.am and configure.in.
35 - the testSuite is still brain damage (not guilty).
37 2003-06-02 Benoit Regrain <Benoit.Regrain@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
38 * WrapVTK.py : modifications to get correctly vtk source files to
40 * vtk/vtkGdcmReader.cxx : modification for an already existing name
41 (FileName -> Filename)
43 2003-06-11 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
44 * vtk/vtkGdcmReader.[cxx/h]:
45 - UpdateProgress method should now be effective
46 - removed the limitation on having only images loaded (as opposed
48 - when building a stack of images/volume, a lesser number of
49 gdcmHeader and gdcmFile instances should be used (hopefully
51 - when building a stack of images/volumes, files which are not
52 loadable (wrong path-filename, wrong permissions on existing file,
53 or file not parsable by gdcm) are replaced with a black image
54 in the stack (for the caller to notice the problem).
56 2003-06-03 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
57 * vtk/vtkGdcmReader.cxx: hopefully corrected Z extent.
59 2003-06-02 Benoit Regrain <Benoit.Regrain@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
60 * vtk/vtkGdcmReader[cxx|h] : makes correct code to remove conflicts
61 between standard library (std) and vtk library (problems are found
62 under Windows... thanks Windows !)
64 2003-05-30 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
65 * vtk/vtkGdcmReader[cxx|h] should now be volume aware (read ready for
67 * gdcmPython/demo/vtkGdcmReader.py: commented lines for volume test
69 2003-05-29 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
70 * vtk/vtkGdcmReader[cxx|h] preparation addons for loading volumes.
72 2003-05-28 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
73 * When compiling with distutils (see setup.py) the C++ compiler is
74 called with different flags than the default ones (with automake).
75 In order to fix all those warning, I compiled gdcm with the command
76 make 'CXXFLAGS=-Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -D__STDC_LIMIT_MACROS'
77 and went for warning fixes:
78 - src/gdcmHeader.cxx, Test/dcm2acr.cxx, pourFindTaggs.cxx cleaned
79 up from unused variables.
80 - vtk/vtkGdcmReader.cxx: potential bug fix.
81 * src/gdcmHeader.h: Doxygen warning cleanup
83 2003-05-27 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
85 - typemaps correction to take into account the systematic replacement
86 of "using namespace std" with std:: prefix e.g. std::list,
87 std::string... (cf changes of 2003-05-21).
88 - gdcmGlob global variable of type gdcmGlobal (defined in
89 src/gdcmUtil.cxx and declared in gdcmPython/gdcm.i) is now
90 exported to Python a as cvar.
91 * gdcmPython/__init__.py now defines two functions GetPubDictTagNames()
92 and GetPubDictTagNamesByCategory() as a replacement for deprecated
93 gdcmDictSet.GetPubDictTagNames() and
94 gdcmDictSet.GetPubDictTagNamesByCategory() class functions (i.e.
96 * gdcmPython/demo/printGroupedPublicDict.py is operational again,
97 with the above changes.
99 2003-05-22 Benoit Regrain <Benoit.Regrain@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
100 * setup.py, manifest.in : bug fix under linux
102 2003-05-22 Benoit Regrain <Benoit.Regrain@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
103 * Modification of setup.py to compile vtk part too. Then, we have 2
104 wrappers which must work with same distutils. For that, we have a
105 generic distutils in distusiltsWrapping.py ; with :
106 - build_extWrap class to wrap generically all extensions,
107 - ExtensionWrap base class for all wrapping extension that contains
109 - Wrapper interface which wrap sources
110 + In WrapSwig.py we have extension and wrapper for Swig
111 + In WrapVTK.py we have extension and wrapper for VTK
112 * MANIFEST.in : modifications to consider vtk directory and new python
113 files for compilation
115 2003-05-21 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr> with Benoit Regrain
116 * Added python wrappers of vtkGdcmReader vtk class (see the
117 source in vtk/vtkGdcmReader.cxx) :
118 - vtk/Makefile.am now builds a library
119 - gdcmPython/Makefile.am now builds vtkgdcmPython a second import
120 python library (as opposed to _gdcm.so wich are the python
121 wrappers of gdcm). vtkgdcmPython.so uses the vtk python wrappers
122 (vtkWrapPython and vtkWrapPythonInit utility) to build vtkgdcmPython
124 - configure.in has an additional flag --enable-vtk that needs
125 to be set to enable compilation of vtk related code, that is:
126 + vtk/vtkGdcmReader.so and
127 + vtk/testvtkGdcmReader C++ demo of vtk wrappers of gdcm)
128 + gdcmPython/vtkgdcmPython.so (see above)
129 - gdcmPython/demo/vtkGdcmDemo.py corrected (some images cannot
130 be read when compressed or when HighBit + 1 != BitsStored),
131 - gdcmPython/demo/vtkGdcmReader.py added. This demo illustrates
132 the usage of the python wrapper of vtkGdcmReader vtk class.
133 * vtk/vtkGdcmReader.cxx: bug fixed (thanks to Benoit Regrain).
134 * src/*.[h] all occurences of stl classes are now prefixed with
135 std::, and all occurences of "using namespace std;" where removed.
136 This is to avoid pollution of global namespace in included files.
137 Apparently vtk does not avoid this pitfall: when using both
138 gdcm and vtk (as in vtk/vtkGdcmReader.cxx) this ended up in a
139 collision of various stl members (principally cout...).
140 * gdcmPython/testSuite.py now cleanly removes temprory generated
142 * gdcmPython/gdcm.i now declares a typemap for std::string (to
143 comply with above changes)
145 2003-05-12 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr> with JPR
146 * src/gdcmHeader>[h/cxx] added gdcmHeader::GetPixelSize()
147 * vtk/vtkGdcmReader.cxx now properly inports the image in the
148 vtk data structure (an image Flip was required).
149 * vtk/testvtkGdcmReader.cxx refers to gdcmData subdir instead of Data.
150 * cosmetic changes in documentation.
152 2003-05-7 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr> with JPR
153 * src/gdcmHeader.cxx: the constructor no longer exits when an
154 unexisting file is given as argument.
155 * The subdirectory Data (containing all the images used for the
156 test suite) is not part of this repository anymore. A new module
157 containing those images is now available at
158 :pserver:xxx@cvs.creatis.insa-lyon.fr:2402/cvs/public
159 with the name gdcmData.
160 All the python scripts (including the package initialisation file
161 gdcmPython/__init__.py) were adapated to take this change into
162 account (basically GDCM_DATA_PATH is now GDCM_TEST_DATA_PATH).
164 2003-05-5 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr> with JPR
165 * vtk subdir added. Contains vtkGdcmReader.[cxx|h] a vtk class
166 inherinting from vtkImageReader and testvtkGdcmReader.cxx a small
167 demo of the usage of this class.
168 Compilation of this vtk part is only done when using the --enable-vtk
169 at configure (or autogen.sh) stage.
171 2003-04-16 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr> with JPR
172 * More memmory link related corrections and documentation fixes.
174 - maximum info is obtained with a command of the form:
175 valgrind --leak-check=yes --leak-resolution=high --num-callers=40
176 --show-reachable=yes PrintHeader
177 - the remaining reachable blocks seem to come from the STL
178 allocation scheme through the usage of map and list. It looks
179 like this memory cannot be freed but it is not a memory leak
180 (in fact further invocation to the STL would recollect the
181 unused memory allthough it cannot explicitely be freed).
182 * gdcmPython/demo/vtkGdcmDemo.py added: this is a small demo
183 of displaying an image parsed with gdcm and displayed with VTK.
184 Note: some images don't seem to work e.g.
185 python vtkGdcmDemo.py ../../Data/US-RGB-8-esopecho.dcm
186 * src/gdcmHeader.x: dicom_vr and Dicts are not class members anymore.
187 Allthough this weakens the semantics, it is a ditch attempt to
188 make gdcm more thread friendly.
190 2003-04-15 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr> with JPR
191 * Memory link hunt (by using valgrind through the command
192 valgrind --show-reachable=yes --leak-check=yes PrintHeader).
193 - added src/gdcmVR.cxx gdcmVR.h that objectify the previous
194 gdcmHeader::_dicom_vr.
195 - gdcmHeader::InitVRDict transfered as gdcmVR::gdcmVR().
196 - gdcmHeader::dicom_vr is now of type gdcmVR* as opposed to
198 - gdcmGlobal global object contained class added (see src/gdcmUtil.x)
200 2003-04-9 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr> with JPR
201 * src/Makefile.am now exports all the necessary include files at
205 * UpdateGroupLength replaced by new one
208 * UpdateGroupLength re-written using H-Table
209 (named UpdateGroupLengthNew untill checks are over)
211 2003-04-7 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr> with JPR
212 * Data/im_00001 renamed to gdcm-MR-PHILIPS-16-Multi-Seq.dcm
213 * gdcmPython/testSuite.py now include a test of gdcmFile::Write.
215 - gdcmHeader::GetPubElValSet removed.
216 - gdcmElValSet::WriteDcm, WriteAcr, WriteExplVR, revamped to
217 UpdateGroupLength, WriteElements, Write.
218 - gdcmHeader::FileType moved to gdcmCommon.h. The enum FileType
219 doesn't contain TrueDicom anymore since ExplicitVR and ImplicitVR
220 carried the same semantics.
221 - src/gdcmHeaderIdo.cxx changed accordingly.
222 - gdcmFile::WriteBase now regroups all the codes from previous
223 versions of WriteDcm, WriteDcmImplVR, and WriteACR.
224 - enum FileType moved to gdcmCommon.h
225 * src/gdcmHeader.cxx AddDefault trashed
227 * getimageDataSize now calls gdcmGetXSize
228 * Test/*.cxx changed to agree with above changes
230 2003-03-31 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
231 * src/gdcmHeader.h: LoadElements() is not a public method anymore
232 (to avoid double call by end user).
233 * Test/*.cxx LoadElements() doesn't need to be called explicitely
234 by end user, since gdcmHeader::gdcmHeader now handles it.
236 2003-03-29 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
237 * gdcm/Doc many doxygen changes:
238 - Doxyfile now has two different versions, DoxyfileUsers that generates
239 the html.users end users oriented documentation and
240 DoxyfileDeveloppers that generates the html.developper developper
241 oriented documentation.
242 - README changed accordingly
243 - requirement.txt removed (old design info moved to TODO).
244 - Additional files DoxyInstallation.txt, DoxyIntroduction.txt,
245 DoxyMainPage.txt, DoxyPython.txt provide more information.
246 - Note: the website http://www.creatis.insa-lyon.fr/Public/Gdcm/ can now
247 be updated by simply regenerating the docs with doxygen and copying
248 html.developper and html.users to tux:/home/httpd/html/Public/Gdcm
249 * src/gdcmElValSet.cxx: stl <map>.count() can only return 0 or 1. Hence
250 all the tests in the form "if (<map>.count() >1)" were removed.
251 * src/gdcmFile.cxx: cosmetic changes to avoid messages of doxygen about
252 ill-formed documentation sections.
253 * src/gdcmHeader.cxx: ditto
255 2003-03-27 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
256 * setup.py fixed for un*x (needed macro for stdint.h)
257 * Test/test.cxx renamed to PrintHeader.cxx to avoid collision on
258 un*ces with sh-utils test utility.
259 * gdcmPython/demo/test.py renamed to PrintHeader.py
260 * gdcmPython/demo/ReorganiseFiles.py new demo script added.
261 * gdcmPython/win32/gdcmpycomplet.dsp renamed to gdcmpyembedded.dsp.
262 * gdcmPython/win32/gdcmpy.dsp trashed away (brain damaged).
263 * src/gdcm*.cxx JPR's bad inclusion fixed.
265 2003-03-26 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
266 * src/gdcmHeader[h, cxx] gdcmHeader now has an IsReadable predicate.
267 * gdcmPython/demo/test.py changed accordingly.
269 2003-03-25 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
270 * gdcmPython/Makefile.am fixed linking against libstdc++
271 * gdcmPython/_gdcm.so symbolic link to gdcmPython/.libs/pygdcm.so added.
272 * Swig subdir (historical tests of swig version 1.3.17++) removed
273 * Test/testChangeEntete.cxx some lines commented out in order to make
275 * src/gdcmHeader.cxx cleaned up wild JPR's dirty kludge.
276 * src/gdcmElValSet.cxx cleaned up frog's forgotten debug message
278 2003-03-24 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
279 * src/gdcmHeader.cxx gdcmHeader::gdcmHeader now calls LoadElements(),
280 hence the user doesn't need this explicit call.
281 - gdcmPython/testSuite.py, gdcmPython/demo/*.py changed accordingly
282 i.e. LoadElements() call removed.
283 * src/gdcmCommon.h now defines UINT32_MAX (see stdint.h).
284 - src/Makefile.am declares the proper flag for g++.
285 * src/gdcmElValSet.h added gdcmElValSet::GenerateFreeTagKeyInGroup
286 for adding user defined new tags.
287 - src/gdcmHeader.cxx gdcmHeader::NewManualElValToPubDict added.
288 - src/gdcmHeader.cxx gdcmHeader::AddAndDefaultElements now
289 cleanly adds some gdcm added tags (like gdcmXSize, gdcmYSize...)
291 2003-03-17 Fabrice Bellet <Fabrice.Bellet@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
292 * Makefile.am, acinclude.m4, configure.in, python.m4, Dicts/Makefile.am,
293 Doc/Makefile.am, Test/Makefile.am, gdcmPython/Makefile.am,
294 src/Makefile.am : the project should properly compile and install
295 with the autotools, included the python wrappers part.
296 * gdcm.spec.in : added a spec file for RPM packaging.
298 2003-03-14 Benoit Regrain <Benoit.Regrain@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
299 * src/gdcmUtils.cxx : redifinition of defaults parameters in code
301 2003-03-12 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
302 * gdcmPython/__init__.py fix of GDCM_DICT_PATH which was not
303 to exported to the environement (see gdcmPython/testSuite.py
305 * src/gdcmElValSet.[cxx/h], gdcmElValue.[cxx/h], gdcmFile.[cxx/h],
306 gdcmHeader.[cxx/h]: ElValSet class renamed to gdcmElValSet, and
307 ElValue class renamed to gdcmElValue for obvious consistency reasons.
308 * src/gdcmElValSet.cxx, src/gdcmUtil.[cxx-h] Tokenize utility function
309 moved away from gdcmElValSet.cxx to gdcmUtil.cxx.
311 2003-03-10 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
312 * gdcmPython/__init__.py doesn't crash anymore when running in
313 in InstallMode or PreInstallMode but with an environement given
314 value of GDCM_DICT_PATH.
315 * src/gdcmDictSet.[cxx/h] coding style.
317 2003-03-06 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
318 * src/gdcmHeader.h and gdcmHeader.cxx Coding style + doxigenation.
319 * src/gdcm.h general comments moved to TODO, and README
320 * src/gdcm.h should now be seen as a user commodity (including it
321 should suffice to fully use gdcm). It is nowhere including within
322 any of the kernel files src/*.cxx and src/*.h.
324 2003-03-05 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
325 * src/gdcm.h splitted in gdcmCommon.h, gdcmDict.h, gdcmDictEntry.h,
326 gdcmDictSet.h, gdcmElValSet.h, gdcmElValue.h, gdcmFile.h,
328 * src/gdcm*.cxx only include their corresponding include file
329 (as opposed to gdcm.h)
330 * gdcmPython/gdcm.i changed accordingly
331 * Test/Makefile.am corrected and added NEWS, AUTHORS in order for
332 the autogen.sh generated "make snapshot" command to work.
333 * autogen.sh removed history related references to crea package.
335 2003-03-04 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
336 * distutilsSwigCPlusPlus.py work around some swig portability
339 2003-03-03 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
340 * Eventually, python/gdcmPython was renamed to gdcmPython. This
341 was done in a last ditch attempt to get setup.py _really_
342 operationnal. The python/gdcmPython layaout add the advantage
343 of hidding away the python related distutils specific files
344 (MANIFEST.in, setup.py, distutils*.py...) from the main directory.
345 Alas, the src directory was out of scope (i.e. it's relative
346 position to setup.py was ../src) which made things impossible to
347 handle (see previous version of python/setup.py). Crossing fingers...
349 2003-02-20 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
350 * python/setup.py now works on Un*x. (harder than I thougth)
351 * python/distutilsSwigCPlusPlus.py can now have include files
352 among the list of sources.
354 2003-02-20 Benoit Regrain <Benoit.Regrain@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
355 * src/gdcmHeader.cxx : bug fix - opening dicom file in binary !!!
356 * modifications in MSVC projects
358 2003-02-19 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
359 * As stated by the first lines of Test/ExceptionAndPython/README, it
360 looks like we can move back to original usage of exception within
361 src/gdcm* and hence remove the errno stuff that was introduced
362 as a quick and dirty fixture of this problem (added to the TODO).
363 * Doc/Doxyfile configuration file for Doxygen and corresponding
364 README file for usage added.
365 * Test/testWrite.cxx added. This new test comes from a split of
366 test.cxx that is now reverted to its original purpous i.e.
367 testing the proper parsing of a Dicom related file.
368 testWrite.cxx concentrates on testing the IO part of gdcm.
369 * Test/bug1.cxx (containing a bug on WIn32) added.
370 * src/gdcm.h, gdcmHeader.cxx, gdcmDictSet.cxx:
371 - gdcmHeader::GetPubTagNames and gdcmHeader::GetPubTagNamesByCategory
372 whose purpose is to publish the content of the TagNames of the
373 Dicom public dictionnary were not accessible without an
374 instance of class gdcmHeader.
375 - those methods are now static methods of gdcmDictSet and hence
376 require no instances at all to be invocated.
377 - within gdcmDictSet this change required to change some method
378 to class methods (i.e. are now static) among which SetDictPath
379 (renamed to BuildDictPath) and LoadDefaultPubDict.
380 * python/gdcmPython/demo/printGroupedPublicDict.py changed to illustrate
381 the above changes by calling the new method classes of gdcmDictSet.
382 * python/gdcmPython/__init__.py now exposes gdcm.gdcmDictSet for
383 the above to be effective.
384 * python/gdcmPython: in order to wrap properly the above changes
385 for Python, swig version now needs to be > 1.3.17.
386 * python/gdcmPython/Makefile fixed to adapt itself to new
387 configure/make shema introduced by Johan Montagnat (thanks for the
388 contribution). Alas this Makefile cannot be turned into a proper
389 Makefile.am without some heavy changes in the configure.in
390 (for python dectection).
391 * python/gdcmPython/gdcm.i: the out typemap map<string, list<string>>*
392 now avoids publishing the empty entries.
394 2003-02-13 Benoit Regrain <Benoit.Regrain@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
395 * python/setup.py : bug fix concerning install under windows
397 * gdcm.dsw : bug fix concerning path for libraries for python !!!
399 2003-02-13 Benoit Regrain <Benoit.Regrain@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
400 * Dicts/dicomV3.dic : remove double spaces !!!
401 * src/gdcmElValSet.cxx : bug fix concerning windows compiler
402 * python/gdcmPython/win32/gdcmpycomplet.dsp : bug fix concerning paths
405 2003-01-28 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
406 * src/gdcmHeader.cxx added a post header parsing AddAndDefaultElements
407 method. Doxygenation.
408 * src/gdcm.h clean up of JPR spurious comments.
410 2003-01-17 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
411 * python/distutilsSwigCPlusPlus.py now properly collects the
412 shadow classes generated by "swig -c++" (gdcm.py in our case)
413 when using "python setup.py install".
414 * python/gdcmPython/__init__.py imports gdcm.py and only manually
415 reexports the working classes.
416 * src/gdcmHeader.cxx all the try/catch/throw calls were replaced
417 by the classical C errno scheme. This is to prevent an obscure
418 behavior of the python wrappers when importing wxPython.wx prior
419 to gdcmPython (which ended up in an abort call). An illustration
420 of this oddity can be found in the Test/ExceptionAndPython
421 subdir (see the README file). This problem probably due to
422 an combination of g++ and dynamic loading.
423 * added Test/ExceptionAndPython (see above)
425 2003-01-17 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
426 * Changed the layout of the python part to avoid bloating main
427 directory with setup.py, distutilsSwigCPlusPlus.py, MANIFEST.in
428 i.e. the distutils arsenal. All the python related stuff is
429 again in a python subdir, but the package itself is now in
431 * setup.py was cleaned up:
432 - pythonIncludePath removed
433 - python setup.py bdist target is now functional.
434 * gdcmPython/__init__.py doesn't export FileName any more (to avoid
435 collision with other packages). gdcmPython/demo/*.py changed
437 2003-01-15 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
438 * python subdir moved to gdcmPython (preparation of distutils packaging).
439 * gdcmPython/setup.py and distutilsSwigCPlusPlus.py added. The
440 distutils installer is operational.
441 * - gdcmPython/__init__.py now properly loads the swig generated
442 shadow classes (from gdcm.py).
443 - gdcmPython/demo/*.py changed to import the package gdcmPython
444 instead of gdcmPython/demo/load.py.
445 - gdcmPython/testSuite.py changed to import the package gdcmPython.
448 2002-12-16 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
449 * src/gdcm.h, src/gdcmHeader.cxx: added GetPubTagNames() resp.
450 GetPubTagNamesByCategory() to gdcmHeader that return a list of the
451 entries within the associated public Dicom dictionary resp. the same
452 information but sorted by the fourth field (PAT, IMG, DIR) of the
454 - Dicts/dicomV3.dic Entries which had and unspecified fourth field
455 are now in the "???" group.
456 - python/gdcm.i changed accordingly,
457 - python/demo/printGroupedPublicDict.py added, that gives an example
458 of the above new functionalities in Python.
460 2002-12-11 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
461 * src/gdcm.h, gdcmHeader.cxx:
462 - historic references to glib's g_malloc and g_free (#defined)
463 were definitively removed.
464 - gdcm.h: cosmetic changes (part of comments moved to Doc/requirements)
465 * src/gdcmElValSet.cxx:
466 - GetElement(guint32, guint32) renamed to GetElementByNumber.
467 - GetElValue(guint32, guint32) renamed to GetElValueByNumber.
468 - GetElValue(string) renamed to GetElValueByName.
469 - Added GetElementByName(string).
470 * src/gdcmHeader.cxx: added
471 - GetPubElValRepByNumber(guint16, guint16)
472 - GetPubElValRepByName(string)
473 - GetShaElValRepByNumber(guint16, guint16)
474 - GetShaElValRepByName(string)
475 - GetShaElValByNumber(guint16, guint16)
476 - GetShaElValRepByName(string)
477 - GetElValRepByNumber(guint16, guint16)
478 - GetElValRepByName(string)
479 - GetElValByNumber(guint16, guint16)
480 - GetElValRepByName(string)
481 * Doc/requirements.txt added.
483 2002-12-9 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
484 * Test/Makefile building now depends on the one of libgdcm.so
485 * src/gdcmHeader.cxx and gdcm.h are now OB (undefined length encoded
486 pixel data) aware which enables finding the address (offset) of
487 the pixel data of JPEG encoded DICOM files. This leaves only a single
488 file in the testSuite whose pixel data address (offset) is unknown.
489 * python/testSuite.py changed accordingly.
491 2002-12-6 Christophe Odet + Hugues Benoit-Cattin + Eric.Boix
492 * VC++ has some strong limitations when working with the STL, as stated
493 in http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q168/9/58.ASP :
494 "Also note that some STL containers (map, set, queue, list, deque)
495 cannot be exported. [...]
496 Some STL classes contain nested classes. These classes can not
498 This is caused by a designed limitation that once a template
499 class is instantiated, it can not be re-instantiated and
501 Since our usage of map<> is ubiquitous in gdcm, this "designed
502 limitation" of VC++ is a pitfall.
503 Hence the Python wrappers of gdcm cannot be incrementally linked
504 against the c++ dynamic library. The dirty but only workaround is
505 to forget about incremental link of dynamic libraries and to generate
506 the Python wrappers library with the inclusions of the underlying C++
508 The following modifications concern this matter on Win32/VC++:
509 - wrapping python correct with standalone wrapped dll (don't use separate
510 dll under windows !!!!)
511 - python21_d debug mode enabled (ask Frog how to use it :-)
512 - NO problem with having an STL member of class for example string in C++
513 WITH THE RESTRICTION OF FORGETING ABOUT INCREMENTAL LINK.
514 - Python test of dcmlib in Python is ok under windows on a large set
516 * removed glib references
517 * typedef's inserted in gdcm.i for correct swig type management
519 2002-11-27 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
520 * python/demo/*.py load.py extracted from test.py. Added explore.py
521 that only displays required tags and testAll.py that parses all
522 the files of the testsuite without using unittest.
523 * python/testSuite.py other additional test on new files added.
524 * Data/* new test files added accordingly to the testSuite.
525 * src/gdcmHeader.cxx avoid overwriting of the dictionary when
526 the vr in the file differs from the one of the dictionary.
528 2002-11-20 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
529 * src/gdcm.h and gdcmHeader.cxx gdcm no longer loads all the elements
530 values, but limits itself to values which are below a user specified
531 size (by default 1024 bytes).
532 * python/gdcm.i : elements not loaded (because their size is above the
533 user specified treshold) are exported with their TagKey as key of the
534 python dictionary. This enables the testsuite to make some checks
535 on the unloaded elements (since we have their offset and size).
536 * python/testSuite.py
537 - now tests for the existence and proper value of the pixel data
538 - two new examples added.
539 * Data/gdcm-MR-SIEMENS-16.acr[12] added.
541 2002-11-18 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
542 * src/gdcm.h and gdcmHeader.cxx are now "Big Endian transfer syntax"
543 aware. See the strategy comments in gdcmHeader::FindeLength().
544 * Test/test.cxx now accepts a filename as first argument.
545 * Data/US-PAL-8-10x-echo.dcm and US-RGB-8-epicard.dcm added.
546 * python/testSuite.py changed to integrate test on above files.
548 2002-11-15 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
549 * Dicts/dicomV3.dic removed all the trailing (RET) when the
551 * python/testSuite.py more tests added.
553 2002-11-14 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
554 * python/testSuite.py unittest test suite added (uses Data)
555 * Data/* dcm and acr files for the test suite.
556 * glib dependance removed from un*x version. We now use ISO C99
557 7.18 Integer types (see stdint.h)
558 - python/Makefile, src/Makefile src/gdcm.h
559 * src/ when an explicit vr (like dicom files) suddenly poped an
560 implicit element we use to mark the underlying DictEntry of the
561 concerned ElValue with "Implicit". This strategy was damageable
562 too the public or provite dictionaries, since some of their vr
563 would be changed. Since Header::FindLength heavily relies on the
564 detection by Header::FindVR of falsely explicit elements, I
565 added an extra ImplicitVr member to ElValue (boolean).
566 The rest of the changes we the necessary adaptations.
568 2002-11-12 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
569 * src/gdcmHeader::FindLength bug fix when trapping falsely explicit
571 * src/gdcmHeader::FindVR: hard way fix of falsely explicit vr files.
573 2002-11-8 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
574 * Adaptation for porting to VC++:
576 o forced to use std namespace (for string to be known)
577 o all class use __declspec export style on WIN32
578 - src/gdcmUtil.cxx new Exit method that wraps the exit call
579 (in stdlib.h on Win32 but in std:: for gcc)
580 * src/gdcmDictSet::SetDictPath adds a trailing / to environement
581 variable GDCM_DICT_PATH.
582 * src/gdcmHeader.cxx verbose comments made discrete.
584 2002-11-7 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
585 * python/gdcm.i: added a typemap that converts a C++ hashing table
586 to native Python dictionary.
587 * python/demo/test.py:
588 - now uses the native dictionary for exploration of gdcmHeader.
589 - takes an optional filename argument (the file to parse).
590 * src/gdcm.h and gdcmHeader.cxx: gdcmHeader now has an accessor on
591 PubElVals hashing table.
592 * Dicts/dicomV3.dic removed error prone trailing spaces.
594 2002-11-6 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
595 * Python wrapping process moved away from src/Makefile to
596 newly created python/Makefile (as well as gdcm.i)
597 * python/demo/test.py (that mirrors Test/test.cxx) is effective.
598 * src/gdcmHeader::FindLength only looks for current vr when necessary.
599 * src/gdcmDictSet.cxx: the dictionnaries directory path is now imported
600 from the environement variable GDCM_DICT_PATH (when existing).
601 * src/gdcmDict::GetTag bug fix.
603 2002-10-31 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
604 * Straightforward temporary fixes for swig to build the python wrappers.
605 src/Makefile now has a python working entry [by working we mean
606 that we can import de shadow classes without errors].
608 2002-10-29 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
609 * hashtest.cxx removed (since allready in Test)
610 * src/gdcmlib.h renamed to src/gdcm.h
611 * src/dcm.i renamed to src/gdcm.i
612 * src/Makefile prepared for python wrapping
614 2002-10-29 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
615 * src/gdcmHeader.cxx :
616 - Parsing of header is now separated from loading of element values
617 (see gdcmHeader::LoadElements).
618 - general clean up of hopefully all file access (creation of
619 ReadInt16 and ReadInt32)
621 2002-10-22 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
622 * src/gdcmHeader.cxx :
623 - RecupLgr renamed to FindLength and cut off with new IsAnInteger
625 - SetLgrElem renamed to SetLength
626 - GetLgrElem renamed to GetLength
627 - ~gdcmHeader() made virtual to pesky warning messages at compile.
628 * src/gdcmElValSet.cxx fixed both GetElValue methods
629 * Dicts/dicomV3.dic falacious entry [7fe0 0010 OT PXL Pixel Data]
630 due to IdoDude was cleaned out.
632 2002-10-21 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
633 * src/gdcmHeader.cxx RecupLgr split in FindVR and RecupLgr. FindVR
634 concentrates on finding the value representation (when it exists).
635 RecupLgr now only finds the element value length, and it avoids
636 returning the unecessary skL (skipped length).
637 Also, offsetCourant was simply removed (with taille_fich) since
638 it was redundant with the File position internals (by using
639 ftell and fseek). This also made skL (see above in RecupLgr) usage
641 * src/gdcmHeaderIdo.cxx src/gdcmIdo.h added. Those files concentrate
642 on the libido specificities which are handled through class
644 * Test/implicit_vr.dcm dicom v3 in implicit value representation
647 2002-10-17 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
648 * Truckload of changes. Parsing of header is barely functional
649 (see Test/test) with the standard dictionary (see Dicts/dicomV3.dic).
651 2002-10-10 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
652 * src/gdcmHeader.cxx many addons of low level methods
654 2002-10-07 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
655 * src/gdcmHeader now contains_IdDcmCheckSwap, _IdDcmRecupLgr,
658 2002-09-12 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
659 * This corresponds to all the changes decided at the meeting of
660 May 23 2002. Needless to say we are running late...
