stop using the dictionary of dcmtk #38

Open DerOrfa opened 12 years ago

DerOrfa commented 12 years ago

Currently we use the attribute-dictionary of dcmtk to have a flexible mapping from dicom attributes to our properties.

This has some drawbacks:

all installations of the dicom-plugin depend on dcmtk, even if its statically linked
changes in the attribute will break the mapping

DerOrfa commented 12 years ago

Since a4acd0aeeffee5c0fdbad589a8dc4241bd408695 the dicom plugin can (and will) override entries from the official dictionary.

But the dictionary is still needed for libdcmtk itself.
