ANNOUNCEMENT
Version 3.5.4 of the OFFIS DCMTK (DICOM ToolKit) software is now available
for public release. This release includes the following main changes
over the previous version (Version 3.5.3):
- DCMTK 3.5.4 builds correctly with GNU gcc 4.0 and Visual Studio 2005.
- Newly supported platforms:
- Linux on x86_64
- FreeBSD 5.x, 6.x on x86
- Solaris 10 on x86
- QNX 6.2.1 on x86
- The use of CMake to generate project files on Windows is now required.
- New schema for include files. All includes files are now included as
#include "dcmtk/module/file.h", e.g. #include "dcmtk/dcmdata/dctk.h".
This allows the DCMTK header files to be installed in a public directory
such as /usr/local/include and eliminates the risk of name clashes.
- New tool pdf2dcm allows to convert PDF files to DICOM Encapsulated PDF
Storage SOP instances.
- The former "imagectn" tool has been renamed to "dcmqrscp" (Q/R SCP)
and has been refactored into a simple class structure that offers a clean
API for exchanging the index file back-end. Minimal support for compressed
transfer syntaxes has been added. The tool can now also be started by root
and change privileges to a different user and group specified in the config
file.
- New lossless JPEG encoder that guarantees "true lossless" compression
in contrast to the old implementation which could cause rounding errors
in certain cases.
- StoreSCP now supports multi-process mode both on Posix and Win32 platforms
where a separate client process is forked for each incoming association.
On Posix platforms, the tool can also be started from inetd.
- DcmFileFormat::loadFile can now be prevented from attempting to load
non-part 10 files as DICOM datasets. Many tools support a corresponding
command line option "--read-file-only".
- Many tools support a new command line option that ignores the transfer
syntax specified in the meta header and tries to detect the transfer syntax
automatically from the dataset.
- Added support for X-Ray Radiation Dose SR and Procedure Log SR documents in
dcmsr module.
- TLS module now supports AES ciphersuites if compiled with OpenSSL 0.9.7 or
newer. All TLS-enabled tools now support the "AES TLS Secure Transport
Connection Profile".
- Changed names of OpenSSL DLLs for Win32 release build - there are just too
many tools that install "their" version of libeay32.dll and ssleay32.dll in
c:\windows\system32 and cause DLL conflicts. We now call our versions of the
OpenSSL DLLs dcmtkssl.dll and dcmtkeay.dll.
- Added command line options for separate DIMSE and ACSE timeouts to many
tools.
- The dcmdata module now supports an automatic re-conversion of defined length
UN elements read in an explicit VR transfer syntax, if the real VR is defined
in the data dictionary. A corresponding command line option "--convert-un"
is available in dcmdump and dcmconv.
- Compilation with OpenSSL 0.9.8, which introduces an incompatible API change,
is now supported.
- Network tools support transmission and receipt of JPEG 2000 transfer
syntaxes.
- DICOMDIR tools and classes now support Encapsulated Document, Real World
Value Mapping, Hanging Protocol and Color Presentation State objects.
- The toolkit can now read DICOM files in which the meta header group length
attribute (0002,0000) is absent, based on a heuristic that checks for group
0002 attribute tags.
- Added option --read-dataset to dcmdjpeg that allows to decompress JPEG
compressed DICOM objects that have been stored as dataset without
meta-header.
- Added support for reading UN elements with undefined length according to CP
246. A flag allows to revert to the prior behaviour in which UN elements with
undefined length were parsed like a normal explicit VR SQ element.
- Added support for new Media Storage Application Profiles according to DICOM
PS 3.12-2004. Removed support for non-standard conformant "No profile".
- The DICOM data dictionary has been re-worked based on the latest supplements
and correction proposals, as usual.
- Many bug fixes and minor improvements as usual - see the CHANGES.354 file for
more details.
