   System.bool get();
   void set (    System.bool value);
}

Remarks

There are times when the negotiated transfer syntaxes for a DicomAssociation require a previously uncompressed (or losslessly compressed) image to be transmmited in a lossy form. Although the DICOM standard is not entirely clear, most people believe that a new instance UID should be generated whenever this happens. This is the normal DicomObjects behaviour, and a reference to the original UID is included in the referenced image sequence. However, some query SCUs having requested a specific image by it's UID fail to look in the referenced image sequence and reject images with UIDs other than those they had requested.

This property provides a default value for new DicomAssociation objects, and also controls the behaviour for DicomImage.Write and DicomDataSet.Write. The default value of this property is true, causing new UIDs to be generated.
