Hello Conquest Users!
I have been using conquest for a few months now. It's great but I would really like to see a few enhancements.
In particular, I am interested in managing Dicom RT objects: RT Plans, RT Structures, and RT Dose files in addition to actual images. As-is conquest supports these objects, but finding and managing them from the database could be much improved if just a few more key details were included in the database somewhere. In particular, it's hard to sort out the dependencies between plan->structure->Dose. Also, conquest doesn't seem to compress RT Dose files (which can be huge) and this would be a big advantage to me if it did.
I will try to make these enhancements myself but would much appreciate any advice to get started compiling the code from scratch. Looking at the forum and docs I can't seem to find even what particular compiler is recommended. I am stuck with a microsoft environment (no linux), but I could obtain whatever C compiler works best.
Any other advice on compiling, adding these particular enhancements, etc, would be much appreciated!
