C# GDCM function pointer, cannot convert to SWIGTYPE

I am using GDCM to read in DICOM files. As the project is in C#, I have compiled GDCM's C# wrappings with SWIG, following GDCM's manual.

Now I am trying to sort all DICOMs in a folder into Volumes (much like the VolumeSorter example provided by GDCM, however, this is written in c++). I'm following the SortImage2.cs example, but this won't compile, giving me the error:

Error CS1503 Argument 1: cannot convert from 'method group' to 'SWIGTYPE_p_f_r_q_const__gdcm__DataSet_r_q_const__gdcm__DataSet__bool' New Unity Project.CSharp ...\Scripts\SortImage2.cs 33

Here's the full example:

/*=========================================================================

using System;
using gdcm;

public class SortImage2
{
  bool mysort(DataSet ds1, DataSet ds2)
    {
    return false;
    }

  public static int Main(string[] args)
    {
    Sorter sorter = new Sorter();
    sorter.SetSortFunction( mysort );

    return 0;
    }
}

I'm assuming it cannot interpret the Is there a way to "cast" the method to the expected type? Or is this an error in GDCM's setup of SWIG?

The example you are describing is actually commented out as seen here:

I suspect this is a functionality that has never been finished.
