+ * Test/PrintAllDocument.cxx: looping on files is now effective. It used to
+ loop on the same image until memory went out.
+ Note: this means we still have gobs of memory loss in PrintDocument
+ * src/gdcmDocument.cxx: fixes problem on parsing on file
+ gdcmData/16BitsJpegLosslessGrayScale.dcm.
+2004-06-24 Jean-Pierre Roux
+FIX : Write - All the Sequences and Sequence Item are now written
+ as 'no length' stuff, and a Sequence Delimitor aor an Item Delimitor
+ is added a the end, when necessary.
+ - A lot of brain-damaged images, that were read correctly are
+ now written correctly
+ - length compatible BinEntry are now loaded correctly
+ (even for odd groups)
+ Note : only Explicit Value Representation was checked.
+ (question : is implicit VR really necessary for gdcm ?)
+
+2004-06-23 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
+ * DEVELOPPER: added a proposition of coding style.
+ * src/gdcmDocEntry.h: removed every inline declaration (for test of
+ coding style).
+
+2004-06-23 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
+ * gdcmDocEntry::PrintCommonPart() and ::WriteCommonPart() removed.
+ Use the gdcmDocEntry::Print() and Write() instead.
+ * src/gdcmDocument.cxx: bug fix.
+
+2004-06-22 Jean-Pierre Roux
+ FIX : gdcmDocument.cxx
+ - Now we do recognize the JpegLossLess format (there was a misstyping in
+ code 'beautyfication' :-(
+ - Now we automaticaticaly load the Luts, if any
+
+2004-06-22 Jean-Pierre Roux
+ In order : to write Sequences, whatever their imbrication level,
+ : to allow user to create his own Sequences

+ * Test/TestWriteSimple.cxx: fix to gdcmHeader-gdcmHeaderHelper revamping.
+ The default constructor invoked by the line
+ gdcmHeader *f1 = new gdcmHeader( header );
+ was gdcmHeader::gdcmHeader(bool) instead of the expected
+ gdcmHeader::gdcmHeader(std::string const &, bool = false, bool, bool).
+ Hence the parsing wasn't executed... See also below.
+ * src/gdcmHeader.h: the declaration of gdcmHeader::gdcmHeader(bool)
+ as explicit constructor didn't do the trick to fix the above problem.
+ Could anyone explain why ?
+ * src/gdcmBinEntry.cxx, gdcmValEntry.cxx: gdcmBinEntry::Print() now
+ properly calls gdcmValEntry::Print() (that was weed out from
+ code related to gdcmBinEntry).
+
+2004-06-20 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
+ * In order to fix memory leaks:
+ - Test/TestWriteSimple.cxx: added cleaning of free store through
+ some delete calls.
+ - src/gdcmBinEntry.cxx: fix to avoid SegFault.
+ - src/gdcmDicomDir.[cxx|h]: fixed initialisation in constructor
+ gdcmDicomDir::gdcmDicomDir(bool) [either the constructor itself
+ (through the call to ::AddDicomDirMeta()) or the destructor
+ would crash when deleting uninitialized ::metaElems].
+ - src/gdcmDictEntry.cxx: annotation of ununderstood memory leak.
+ - src/gdcmDocument.cxx:
+ -- ::~gdcmDocument() destructor now cleans up all dictionary entries
+ from dynamic stores.
+ -- ::ParseDES() misplaced deletion of temporary NewDocEntry
+ was causing memory leaks.
+ - src/gdcmSQItem.cxx:
+ -- ::~gdcmSQItem() dummy code cleaned (learned that deletion is
+ cleanly handled with polymophism: sorry but my milage is low).
+ -- ::SetEntryByNumber(string, guint16, guint16) now cleanly allocates
+ a gdcmValENtry, and makes no assumption on type (gdcmDocEntry,
+ gdcmSeqEntry vs gdcmValEntry) of existing entry (when present).
+ This avoids SegFaulting.
+ - src/gdcmSQItem.h: coding style.
+ * Conclusion:
+ - Test/TestWriteSimple still severely sucks. The output image content
+ (when $(GDCMDATA_HOME)/012345.002.050.dcm in input) is brain
+ damaged when displayed with vtkgdcmViewer.
+ - on memory leaks: TestWriteSimple leaks really less (see entry
+ of 2004-06-18 in Changelog file for the call to valgrind).
+ - on segfaults: ctest now passes all the tests but one (no more
+ segfaults).
+ * Erroneous leading white fix:
+ - src/gdcmDict.cxx: getline(from,xxx) doesn't remove the leading
+ white[s] (as opposed to from >> xxx, that removes it [them].
+ - src/gdcmTS.cxx: ditto.
+ - gdcmPython/testSuite.py: dirty related kludge removed.
+ * src/*: remaining references to gdcmParser removed.
+ * src/*[cxx|h]: added copy[way]left header.
+
+
+2004-06-18 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
+ * In order to fix writing of dicom files:
+ - Test/TestWriteSimple.cxx: a simpler example of writing.
+ - Test/CMakeLists.txt changed accordingly.
+ - src/gdcmDocument.cxx:
+ -- The destructor now recursilvely removes potential sequences.
+ -- Bug fix in ::IsJPEG2000()
+ -- ::ReplaceOrCreateByNumber(std::string, guint16, guint16)
+ now handles promotion of gdcmDocEntry to gdcmValEntry in a cleaner
+ manner.
+ -- ::GetValEntryByNumber(guint16, guint16) now defined (as opposed
+ to only declared) and build on top of
+ ::GetDocEntryByNumber(guint16, guint16).
+ -- ::SetEntryByNumber() now uses GetValEntryByNumber(group, element)
+ - src/gdcmElementSet.[h|cxx]: added ::RemoveEntry(gdcmDocEntry *)
+ for usage in destructor and treatement of promotion in
+ ::ReplaceOrCreateByNumber().
+ - src/gdcmSQItem.cxx: destructor should better handle his job.
+ Test/TestWriteSimple now runs (or at least it DOES something).
+ * We can now start hutting memory links. A good starting point is:
+ valgrind -q --skin=memcheck --leak-check=yes --leak-resolution=high
+ --num-callers=100 --show-reachable=yes gdcmTests TestWriteSimple
+ $(GDCMDATA_HOME)/012345.002.050.dcm foo.dcm
+
+2004-06-18 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
+ * Valgrind note: after Mathieu Malaterre teached me how to read
+ the valgrind FAQ ;-] (see http://valgrind.kde.org/faq.html), I
+ learned that:
+ Using gcc, you can force the STL to use malloc and to free memory as
+ soon as possible by globally disabling memory caching.
+ With 3.2.2 and later, you should export the environment variable
+ GLIBCPP_FORCE_NEW before running your program.
+ By setting GLIBCPP_FORCE_NEW, STL related memory leak messages of gdcm
+ simply vanish (it is still not clear to me, whether this means that
+ STL std::string leaks or if valgrind believes it leaks...).
+ * Fixing of SegFault of Test/makeDicomDir (as shown by ctest or by
+ running bin/gdcmTests makeDicomDir):
+ - src/gdcmDicomDir.cxx: dynamic casting used + clean up.
+ - Test/makeDicomDir.cxx now properly traps empty lists and returns
+ with 1.
+ NOW, makeDicomDir cleanly fails (in ctest terminology) instead of
+ SegFaulting (I drowned in DicomDir related code when trying to
+ understand why the list is empty...).
+ * src/gdcmDocument.h: first BSD license header try.
+ * Doc/License.txt added.
+
+2004-06-15 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
+ * src/gdcmDocument.[h|cxx]:
+ - Clean up of the Transfer related predicates. They are now all based
+ on new method isGivenTransferSyntax, that (should) handle properly
+ the padding problem.
+ - general clean up, simplification, and coding style.
+ - Specific clean up of Parse7FE0() (umproperly named actually).
+ * gdcmPython/testSuite.py: an odd temporary kludge introduced.
+
+2004-06-14 Jean-Pierre Roux
+ * gdcmSeqEntry.cxx
+ - fix the display of Sequence Delimitor (SQDepthLevel pb)
+ - fix the display of SQItem ordinal number
+ - add the GetSQItemByOrdinalNumber method
+ - remove some useless never written private methods
+
+2004-06-14 Jean-Pierre Roux
+ * gdcmBinEntry.cxx
+ - adding a constructor taking a gdcmDocEntry as an input param
+ - ReplaceOrCreateByNumber now returns :
+ a gdcmBinEntry * if a Binary (void *) value is passed as a param
+ a gdcmValEntry * if a string value is passed as a param
+ * dcmDocument.cxx
+ - SetEntryByNumber now allows setting gdcmValEntry or gdcmBinEntry,
+ according to the param type (no longer sets a gdcmDocEntry)
+ - GetValEntryByNumber, GetBinEntryByNumber added
+ - NewValEntryByNumber and NewBinEntryByNumber added
+ * gdcmFile.cxx
+ - Pixel Data are now linked to the (7fe0,0010) elements, after reading
+ * gdcmSQItem.h
+ - GetSQItemNumber and SetSQItemNumber added, to provide
+ a (relative) Item identier inside a given Sequence
+ \warning : some pb remaining around this number
+ will be solved asap
+ - AddEntry now takes the Item Number as a param
+ * gdcmValEntry.cxx
+ - adding a constructor taking a gdcmDocEntry as an input param
+
+2004-06-14 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
+ * Memory leak hunt with the following command:
+ valgrind --leak-check=yes --leak-resolution=high --num-callers=40
+ --show-reachable=yes gdcmTests PrintDocument
+ It looks like many (all?) leaks are due to the STL (or a bad usage
+ of the STL. The lines producing the leaks now have a comment with
+ a "MEMORY LEAK" tag: you can retrieve them with
+ grep "MEMORY LEAK" src/*
+ Here are two typical examples which I can't help fixing:
+ -----
+ #include <string>
+ int main() {
+ std::string name;
+ char * test = "babo";
+ name = test; //// <--- valgrind detects 960 bytes lost in
+ //// call to std::string::operator=(char const*)
+ name.clear(); //// Doesn't help !
+ return 0;
+ }
+ -----
+ #include <string>
+ #include <iostream>
+ int main() {
+ std::string line;
+ std::cout << "Type a bunch of characters followed by RETURN: ";
+ getline(std::cin, line); //// <--- valgrind dectects a loss
+ //// of 1320 bytes in call to
+ /// std::basic_istream<>& std::getline<>
+ return 0;
+ }
+ -----
+
+
+2004-06-10 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
+ * src/gdcmHeader.[cxx|h]:
+ - Predicates on the Transfer syntax (of the form Is[JPEG|RLE]*)
+ and related, moved away to gdcmDocument.
+ - Accessors (on the form [Get|Set]Entry*) set up to expose publicly
+ the corresponding protected accessors of inherited class
+ gdcmDocument, removed ! As a consequence gdcmFile had to be
+ declared friend of class gdcmDocument (see below).
+ - operator< moved to gdcmDocument (in fact it belongs to gdcmDicomDir).
+ - Clean up of undefined or unused methods.
+ * src/gdcmFile.[cxx|h]: added SetEntryByNumber (in order to take into
+ account the changes to gdcmHeader.h).
+ * src/gdcmDocument.h:
+ - gdcmFile is now a friend class (in order to take into account the
+ changes to gdcmHeader.h).
+ - Predicates on the Transfer syntax (of the form Is[JPEG|RLE]*) added
+ (see changes to gdcmHeader.h).
+ - Accessors (reading on the form GetEntry*) are now public.
+ - Clean up of undefined or unused methods.
+ * src/gdcmDocument.cxx:
+ - adaptation to changes to gdcmDocument.h
+ - ::OpenFile now writes a verbose message when file cannot be opened.
+ - some std::string properly set to VRKey
+ * src/gdcmDicomDir.h: historical references to gdcmHeader changed to
+ references to gdcmDocument.
+ * Test/TestFindTags.cxx: changed accordingly to above changes.
+ * gdcmPython/testSuite.py: adapted to renaming of acr files in
+ cvs repository gdcmData.
+
+2004-06-09 Eric Boix <Eric.Boix@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
+ * src/gdcmValEntry.h: member voidArea type changed from char* to void*.
+ * src/gdcmBinEntry.h: member voidArea commented out, since it potentially
+ conflicts with gdcmValEntry::voidArea.
+ * src/gdcmValEntry.cxx: unmatching comment wiped out.
+ * src/gdcmVR.[h|cxx]: added two predicates that partition the possible
+ Value representation between StringRepresentable and BinaryRepresentable.
+ * src/gdcmDocument.cxx:
+ - method ParseDES: proper indentation restored and usage of
+ gdcmVR::IsVROfGdcmStringRepresentable wired in.
+ - method LoadDocEntry: the fingerprint left in the SetValue() of
+ unloaded entries (length > MaxSizeLoadEntry) had curiously been
+ removed. Reverting to previous code segment with the proper
+ dynamic_cast< gdcmValEntry* >.
+ Note: this was (partially) breaking the python test suite
+ (gdcmPython/testSuite.py) that made usage of the above
+ fingerprint to check presence of "Pixel Data".
+ * src/gdcmDocEntry.h: coding style.
+ * gdcmPython/__init__.py: environement variable GDCM_DATA_PATH is
+ now taken into account.
+ * gdcmPython/gdcm.i: adaptation to the new internal representation
+ of gdcm (exit gdcmParser, hello gdcmDocument).
+ * gdcmPython/testSuite.py: quick and dirty fix for loading vtkgdcmPython
+ on posix.
+ * gdcmPython/demo/PrintHeader.py: doesn't use the gdcmDocument::Print()
+ anymore, but instead prints the loaded Python dictionary.
+ * .... alas, the python testSuite is still broken.
+
+2004-05-18 Benoit Regrain <Benoit.Regrain@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
+ * gdcmPython/gdcm.i : remove useless lines concerning the gdcmGlobal
+ gdcmGlob
+ * gdcmPython/setup.py : replace the use of cvar.gdcmGlob to gdcmGlobal
+ * src/gdcmUtil.h : export methods
+
2004-05-16 Mathieu Malaterre <Mathieu.Malaterre@creatis.insa-lyon.fr>
* Some more cleanup/enhancement in gdcmPython/CMakeLists.txt getting close
to right behavior
2. Tests as mentionned smarter
3. Some clean up
4. Add a new method in gdcmDict that return the PubDict by name
- this is interesting for 3rd party lib like ITK,
- where we could set the institution name / patient name...
+ this is interesting for 3rd party lib like ITK,
