I have a form that allows for multiple signatures. I would like for the form to count the number of signatures and display text if under 3 signatures (as a warning).
How can this be done? I assume the solution would be some sort of VB code.
I found this post but seems to only be a boolean regarding a signature. I've also tried adding a rule on say a Button, but "Conditions" seem very limited. I could pick the signature control, but things like "is not present" or "is blank" doesn't seem to appropriately pick up if there are any signatures or not. I can't find any conditions that correctly detect signatures.
Note this is being filled out on the web. Details on my form setup:
InfoPath 2010 pushed to a Sharepoint site
Section created w/ Digital Signatures enabled for it
"All the signatures are independent" option is used
I did try sum() on the signature control, but it returned NaN
Per this MSDN article, I tried some VBcode but I haven't been able to get the syntax working. I've tried things like <signature_control_name>.Count
In your data source you should have two signatures groups, one nested within the other. All signatures are stored as nodes within the inner most group as Signature nodes.
If you are using script/managed code, you should be able to grab the inner node and then do a count on the number of Signature nodes within it.
I am not sure of a way to do that using just IP rules since there is no actual node there until a signature is applied (IP won't validate the rule and let you save it).

All, Forgive me I am a newbie in the DICOM world. I tried to learn the DCMTk tools to talk with PACS server. But didn't found much tutorial or sample in the internet to know enough about it .Currently I just have the offical document to read.
I just tried the findscu.exe to test c-find command .
I remembered C-Find would return what specified in the request message. for example. If I only specifed the condition Patient Name ='abc' then the reponse would return only attribute Patient Name. Nothing else.( If it is not right . Please correct me.)
So I want to know how to return all the attribute of response DICOM.
Thanks.
How to specified multiple attributes in the findscu command.
Just specify multiple --key (-k) options on the command line. Alternatively, you could also use a "query file" as described in the man page.
So I want to know how to return all the attribute of response DICOM.
Then, you have to specify all attributes (keys) you are interested in. That's how C-FIND works.
By the way, if you are querying a PACS (Query/Retrieve SCP), then you also have to specify the Query/Retrieve Level (0008,0052), e.g. "PATIENT".
Currently I just have the offical document to read.
If you think that the examples in the man page of the findscu tool are not sufficient (and you are actually querying a PACS), this HOWTO might be useful too.
It is totally legal to send a request with Patient Name information only and the PACS will return all matching datasets.
Each dataset should at least contain all mandatory fields like Date of Birth, Patient ID, and so on, depending on the Query Level.
What information is returned by the PACS system on each Query Level should be specified in the DICOM Conformance Statement of the vendor. I would recommend to take a look at this to know, how to set up a valid query to get the information you need and/or if the information is provided by the PACS system.
It is best to include the Unique key and Required Key Attributes in the request attribute list. Also, include the optional attributes (if supported by SCP) when you wish server to return values for them. Please refer to DICOM Standard PS 3.4 section C.2 and C.3 detail information on Query/Retrieve service. List of attribute and type (Unique, Required, Optional) is listed section C.6.1.1.2 (Patient Level), C.6.1.1.3 (Study Level) and so on.
I'm designing an API to query the history of a value over a time period. Think about a temperature value, and you want to query all the values for today.
I have a from and a to parameter to specify the boundaries of the query.
The values available may not exactly match the boundaries requested. For example, if from is 2016-02-17T00:00:00Z, the first value may be on 2016-02-17T00:04:30Z. To fully represent a graph of the period, it is necessary to retrieve one more value outside the given range. The value on 2016-02-16T23:59:30Z is useful and it would be convenient for the user to not have to make another query to retrieve it.
So as the API designer I'm thinking about a parameter with a pair a of boolean values that would tell for each boundary: give me one more value if there is no value exactly on the boundary.
My question is how to name this parameter as English is not my native language.
Here are a few ideas I have so far but with which I'm not totally satisfied:
overflow=true,true
overstep=true,true
edges=true,true
I would also appreciate any links to existing APIs with that feature, either web API or in programming languages.
Is it possible to make this more of a function/RPC that a traditional rest resource endpoint, so rather than requesting data for a resource between 2 dates like
/myResource?from=x&to=x
something more like
/getGraphData?graphFrom=&graphTo=x
Whilst its only a naming thing, it makes it a bit more acceptable to retrieve results for a task wrapped with outer data, rather than violating parameters potentially giving unexpected or confusing results.
When needing to create a URL that takes a finite set of parameters, where all of said parameters are semantically the same "level", what is the current consensus around the use of delimiters within URLs? Here's an example:
/myresource/thing1,thing2,thing3
/myresource/thing2,thing1
/myresource/thing1;thing2;thing3
/myresource/thing1;thing3
That is to say, the parameter here could be a single, a pair or a triple. They can be specified in any order because they are not a logical tree, and thing2 is not a subordinate resource of thing1, so doing something like this seems "wrong":
/myresources/thing1/thing2/thing3
This bothers me because it implies a tree-like relationship between the elements of the triple, and that is not the case (despite many HTTP frameworks seemingly pushing this, wrongly in my view). In addition, using a query string doesn't feel right as this is not a search operation, it is a known triple in a very finite space - there's nothing to query or search, so to speak.
I suppose the other option would be to make it a POST request and supply a body that details the parts of the triple being supplied. This doesn't give me warm fuzzies though, for some reason.
How have others handled this? Delimiters seem clean to me, and communicate the intended semantics of the resource, but i know there are folks would would take a different view, and I was looking to understand the experiences of others who've had similar use cases.
Since any value can be missing and values can appear in any order, How would you know which value is for which parameter (if that matters).
I would have used query string for GET, or in the payload for POST.
Use query parameters
/path/to/the/resource?key1=value1&key2=value2&key3=value3
or matrix parameters
/path/to/the/resource;key1=value1;key2=value2;key3=value3
Without a proper example, I'm not sure exactly about your needs.
However, a little known fact is that any HTTP parameter can have multiple values. It is the way to go when you have a set of objects (see GoogleMaps static API for an example).
/path/to/the/resource?things=thing1&things=thing2&things=thing3
Then you can use the same API for single, pairs, triples (and more).
I have come across this issue a few times now, and each time I make a fruitless search to come up with a satisfying answer.
We have a collection resource which returns a representation of the member URIs, as well as a Link header field with the same URIs (and a custom relation type). Often we find that we need specific data from each member in the collection.
At one extreme, we can have the collection return nothing but the member URIs; the client must then query each URI in turn to determine the required data from each member.
At the other extreme, we return all of the details we might want on the collection. Neither of these is perfect; the first can result in a large number of API calls, and the second may return a lot of potentially unneeded information.
Of the two extremes I favour the second in our case, since we rarely use this for more than one sutiation. However, for a more general approach, I wondered if anyone had a nice way of dynamically specifying which details should be included for each member of the collection? I guess a query string parameter would be most appropriate, but I don't want to break the self-descriptiveness of the resource.
I prefer your first option..
At one extreme, we can have the
collection return nothing but the
member URIs; the client must then
query each URI in turn to determine
the required data from each member.
If you are wanting to reduce the number of HTTP calls over the wire, for example calling a service from a handset app (iOS/Android). You can include an additional header to include the child resources:
X-Aggregate-Resources-Depth: 2
Your server side code will have to aggregate the resources to the desired depth.
Sounds like you're trying to reinvent PROPFIND (RFC 4918, Section 9.1).
I regularly contain a subset of elements in each item within a collection resource. How you define the different subsets is really up to you. Whether you do,
/mycollectionwithjustlinks
/mycollectionwithsubsetA
/mycollectionwithsubsetB
or you use query strings
/mycollection?itemfields=foo,bar,baz
either way they are all different resources. I'm not sure why you believe this is affecting the self-descriptive constraint.
Looking for guidance on how to achieve something in ASP.NET Web Form - the behaviour is a bit like that seen in ASP.NET AutocompleteExtender, but I can't find anything that gives the flexibility I need. Here is what I am trying to do:
2 TextBox fields on the form,
CompanyName and CompanyRef
(CompanyRef an abbreviated unique
Company identifier)
User types in the CompanyName
As soon as there are 3 characters in the
CompanyName an internal webservice is
called (AJAX?)
Webservice checks what has been entered so far and
evaluates a 3 character representation of it - for instance
"Stack" would be returned as STA0001.
If there is already an STA0001 in the db it would return STA0002 and so on
The value returned would be targetted at the
CompanyRef TextBox
User needs to be able to edit the CompanyRef if they so wish
I'm not looking for code per se, more high level guidance on how this can be done, or if there are any components available that I am missing that you may be able to point me in the direction of. Googling and searching on SO has returned nothing - not sure if I'm looking for the right thing though.
Generating the CompanyRef is easy enough. There are lots of articles etc which cover combining say an autonumber or counter with a string. The difficulty I have with your approach is that you intend to let users fiddle with the ref, and make their own up. What for?
[EDIT - Follow up to comment]
The comment box didn't allow for enough characters to answer your comment fully (and I'm still getting used to the conventions in place here....)
You could use AJAX to call the web service and return currently available values, and then use javascript to update the field. The problem with this is that once a user has decided he or she likes one, it may no longer be available when it is passed back to the database. That means you will have to do one final check, which may result in a message to the user that they can't now have the value they were told was available when they started the process. Only you know the likelihood of this happening. It will depend on the number of concurrent users you have.
I've done an article on calling web services etc using jQuery which should give you a starting point for the AJAX part: http://www.mikesdotnetting.com/Article/104/Many-ways-to-communicate-with-your-database-using-jQuery-AJAX-and-ASP.NET
