Interface ULServiceMessage

All Known Implementing Classes:

Abort, Acknowledge, Dimse, Reject, ReleaseRequest, ReleaseResponse, Request, Response

public interface ULServiceMessage

This superclass represents an Upper Layer Service Message, exchanged on an association. For every message defined in Part 8 of the DICOM standard there is a corresponding constant defined in this interface and an implementing class.

Strictly speaking an ULServiceMessage does not correspond to a PDU (protocol data unit) because a DIMSE message is also represented as an ULServiceMessage and can span over multiple PDU's when sent on an association.

1.50
