fo-dicom 3.0.0 released!

[Anders Gustafsson Cureos AB]

Today, we are releasing fo-dicom version 3.0.0!

It has been a year in the making, and contains quite a lot of platform support, added functionality and bug fixes:

• Available on .NET Framework 4.5.2 and higher, .NET Core (.NET Standard 1.3 and higher), Universal Windows Platform, Xamarin iOS, Xamarin Android, Mono and Unity
• Portable core class library enables cross-platform development e.g. for Xamarin Forms
• Updated to support DICOM standard 2016e, including support for new value representation OL (Other Long)
• Support for Deflated Little Endian Transfer Syntax
• JSON export
• XML export (preview)
• Anonymization (preview)
• Partial support for compressed image codecs on .NET Core, Xamarin, Mono and Unity platforms
• C-GET SCU support
• Substantially reworked network functionality
  
• Support for SOP Class Extended Negotiation
• Support for registering private UIDs
• and lots more!

See change log for all details.

There are a few breaking changes in the API since version 2.0.x, most notably

• ChangeTransferSyntax methods have been renamed to Clone
• DicomDataset.Add now performs pure add; if the specified tag already exists in the dataset, the method will throw. To add a potentially already existing tag to the dataset, use DicomDataset.AddOrUpdate.
• DicomServer<T> constructor is declared obsolete; use DicomServer.Create<T> to instantiate a DICOM server object

For a full list of available NuGet packages, consult the README page or visit NuGet!

Go and grab your fo-dicom 3.0.0 packages already today, and Happy fo-dicom:ing!
