Method Detail

terminate

public boolean terminate(AttributeList attributeList,
                         AttributeTag tag,
                         long byteOffset)

Description copied from interface: AttributeList.ReadTerminationStrategy

Define the criteria for prematurely terminating the reading of a DICOM file.

Permits more complex strategies than simply stopping at the stopAtTag.

Is tested during the read of the top-level dataset ONLY, i.e., not tested within sequences (which means that is strategy is based on byteOffset, very long sequences might still be read).

Tested just AFTER a tag has been read, but before the rest of the attribute for that tag, hence will leave the stream positioned just after that tag if reading is stopped (just like the stopAtTag behavior).

Specified by:

terminate in interface AttributeList.ReadTerminationStrategy

Parameters:

attributeList - the list as read so far

tag - the tag that has just been read

byteOffset - the number of bytes read so far

Returns:

true if reading should be stopped
