[Insight-users] Sorting DICOM files

[Radhika Sivaramakrishna]

Hi all,
I decided to try my hand at trying to sort DICOM files based on something
else other than the 3 choices provided currently. My main interest is to
extract filenames sorted on patient position order but only those filenames
which are associated with high echo time.
I tried a large number of things but unfortunately nothing worked so I need
help.
 
After looking at a lot of code and the old postings on this subject, I
concluded (correct me if I am wrong) that the 3 files to change are
DICOMImageIO2, DICOMAppHelper and itkDICOMSeriesFileNames.
 
Here are some of the things I tried and some of these are rather dumb so
please forgive me.
 
1)       As a starting point, since I did not want to corrupt the existing
copies of these files in the main Insight directories, I copied these 3 .cxx
and .h files, just changed the file names to add the word New into my
directory where I had the main program and compiled the program. I changed
the CMakeLists.txt to include these three files, but I suspect that it is
still accessing the same files from the Insight directory since even if I
make any wrong changes in these files, the program still compiles fine. 
2)       I went ahead and changed the names of the classes to also have the
same names as the files, ie added a New but now I get a lot of compilation
errors at the linking phase.
Can someone help identify what is going on?
Thanks
Radhika
