+ * Fix bug on MacOSX with static initialization in a multui threaded
+ environement. static const string in a header file used to be ill
+ initialized provoquing the freeze of any tests. patch should solve this
+ issue.
+
+2005-01-08 Jean-Pierre Roux <jpr@creatis.univ-lyon1.fr>
+ * According to Benoit's suggestion, and without any objection from anybody
+ - methods SetxxxByNumber and GetxxxByNumber renamed as Setxxx and Getxxx
+ - methods Dict::Print() and Dict::PrintByKey() merged into Dict::Print()
+ - method gdcmDicomDirObject::GetEntry() renamed as
+ gdcmDicomDirObject::GetEntryHT() to avoid confusion (and compile error)
+
+2005-01-07 Mathieu Malaterre <Mathieu.Malaterre@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
+ * Now gdcm::Debug is clearly a copy/paste of VTK approach. You can manipulate
+ you debug/warning message just as c++ streams which make them very convinient
+ to use. Once this is stabilize I will change the ostringstrem to be
+ redirected to a file (ofstream).
+ * Properly support C99 extension: __FUNCTION__ which allow us to display
+ the name of the function call (GNUC also allow __PRETTY_FUNCTION__ for c++)

+ * Removal of useless and dangerous methods :
+ GetEntryByName, GetEntryVRByName, GetDocEntryByName, SetEntryByName
+ GetDocEntryByName, GetEntryByName, GetDictEntryByName
+ * Removal of usless methods :
+ Dict::PrintByName, Dict::GetDictEntryByName
+ * Commenting out of probabely useless methods :
+ Dict::GetDictEntryNames()
+ Dict::GetDictEntryNamesByCategory()
+ DictSet::GetPubDictEntryNames()
+ DictSet::GetPubDictEntryNamesByCategory()
+ * ENH : New Dicom Dictionnary (with Value Multiplicity) is now used
+ * ENH : Use dicomTS.dic as described in 2004 version
+ * ENH : Removal out of the Dicom Dictionary of non dicom 'fourth' field
+ Add to the Dicom Dictionary of Dicom 'Value Multiplicity' field
+ Add Accessors on VM (Value Multiplicity), and VM related methods
+ * ADD : Add a list of 'Dicom Attribute types', as found in
+ http://medical.nema.org/dicom/2004/04_15PU.PDF
+ Unused till now...
+ * ADD : Add dicomGroupNameAbbreviations.dic
+ should be used to write a method to replace the former
+ Dict::GetDictEntryNamesByCategory()
+
+2005-01-07 Benoit Regrain <Benoit.Regrain@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
+ * src/gdcmDocEntry.[h|cxx] : now the ReadLength is the length of the data
+ to read in the file... and only it ! Length is the efective length of the
+ data in the DocEntry structure
+
+2005-01-07 Mathieu Malaterre <Mathieu.Malaterre@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
+ * Change the gdcmDebug approach. Remov the global static debug 'dbg'.
+ And now use a static function call instead, with a global variable. i
+ This is much closer to the VTK approach. Hopefully should be bulletproof
+ and easier to use...hopefully
+
+2005-01-06 Mathieu Malaterre <Mathieu.Malaterre@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
+ * Adding GetMACAddres very alpha for now. This is tricky to be cross plateform.
+
+2005-01-06 Benoit Regrain <Benoit.Regrain@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
+ * src/gdcmDocument.[h|cxx] : remove all copy of DocEntry when parsing a file
+
+2005-01-06 Benoit Regrain <Benoit.Regrain@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
+ * src/gdcmDocEntrySet.[h|cxx], gdcmDocument.[h|cxx] : amelioration of
+ ValEntry, BinEntry, SeqEntry creation or replace
+
+2005-01-06 Benoit Regrain <Benoit.Regrain@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
+ * src/gdcmDictEntry.h : now, the IsVRUnknown is correct
+ * src/gdcmDocument.[h|cxx] : simplify the search of VR value when parsing
+ a file
+ * src/gdcmDocEntrySet.cxx : now the created DocEntry without values is good
+ when specifying the VR
+ * src/gdcmVR.[h|cxx] : add usefull method to test the validity of a VR
+ * src/gdcmDocEntry.cxx : amelioration of print
+
+2005-01-05 Jean-Pierre Roux <jpr@creatis.univ-lyon1.fr>
+ * ADD : Add the method Util::IsCurrentProcessorBigEndian
+ (we'll need it for 'Explicit VR Big Endian' Transfert Syntax)
+ * ADD Method Document::ComputeGroupLength
+ * ENH : now parsing creates a Vitual DictEntry for Pixels Element,
+ in order to allow further VR modification by user
+ * REM : removal of once-called method File::WriteBase
+ integration of its code in formerly one-line method File::Write
+
+2005-01-05 Benoit Regrain <Benoit.Regrain@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
+ * src/gdcmCommon.h : add the GDCM_UNKNOWN constant. This constant is to
+ replace the different values "??", "Unkn", "Unknown".
+ * src/gdcmDicomDirElement.h, gdcmDictEntry.h, gdcmDictSet.h,
+ gdcmDocEntry.cxx, gdcmDocEntrySet.[h|cxx], gdcmDocument.h, gdcmSQItem.cxx,
+ gdcmVR.cxx : use the GDCM_UNKNOWN constant.
+ * Appears a bug in gdcmDictEntry : IsVRUnknown always returns false... bad
+
+2004-12-16 Benoit Regrain <Benoit.Regrain@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
+ * src/gdcmBase.[h|cxx] : new base class. Contains the PrintLevel and an
+ empty Print Method
+ * Set the gdcm::Base class to some Printable classes
+
+2004-12-16 Benoit Regrain <Benoit.Regrain@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
+ * src/gdcmFile.[h|cxx] : add the Print method
+ * src/gdcmPixelReadConvert.[h|cxx] : add the generalized Print method
+ * src/gdcmDocEntrySet.h : generalize the Print with the PrintLevel
+ * src/gdcmDocument.h : remove the PrintLevel informations
+ * Example/PrintFile.cxx : use the new gdcm::File::Print
+
+2004-12-16 Benoit Regrain <Benoit.Regrain@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
+ * src/gdcmFile.cxx : Add the code of ReplaceOrCreateByNumber to not have
+ problems when compiling with the python wrapping
+
+2004-12-16 Benoit Regrain <Benoit.Regrain@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
+ * src/gdcmFile.cxx : bug fix. Omitted a Push in the DocEntryArchive when
+ writting in ImplicitVR
+
+2004-12-12 Jean-Michel Rouet <jm.rouet@noos.fr>
+ * src/gdcmPixelReadConvert.[h|cxx], src/gdcmJpeg*.cxx : new handling of
+ JPEG decompression, especially when dicom frames are split into several
+ JPEG Fragments. This makes use of jpeg decompression from memory buffer.
+ This solves reading for example gdcm-JPEG-Lossless_Thoravision.dcm.
+
+2004-12-10 Benoit Regrain <Benoit.Regrain@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
+ * src/gdcmHeader.cxx : change the initialisation of default header.
+ Now, this header is readable by gdm, e-film, DicomWorks
+
