ca.uhn.hl7v2.parser.AbstractModelClassFactory

All Implemented Interfaces:

ModelClassFactory, Serializable

Direct Known Subclasses:

public abstract class AbstractModelClassFactory
extends Object
implements ModelClassFactory

Abstract base class for ModelClassFactory implementations that read event maps from the file system.

The directory can be set using setEventMapDirectory(String) and defaults to ca/uhn/hl7v2/parser/eventmap/. The file itself is a property file named after the HL7 version (e.g. 2.4.properties).

Method Detail

getEventMapDirectory

public String getEventMapDirectory()

Returns:

the directory where to read the eventmap file from

setEventMapDirectory

public void setEventMapDirectory(String eventMapPrefix)

Parameters:

eventMapPrefix - the directory where to read the eventmap file from

getMessageStructureForEvent

public String getMessageStructureForEvent(String name,
                                          Version version)
                                   throws HL7Exception

Specified by:

getMessageStructureForEvent in interface ModelClassFactory

Parameters:

name - event name

version - HL7 version

Returns:

message structure name for the eventName and version or null if none could be found

Throws:

HL7Exception - if the version is unknown or the message structure list is inaccessible

ModelClassFactory.getMessageStructureForEvent(java.lang.String, ca.uhn.hl7v2.Version)

getEventMapForVersion

public Map<String,String> getEventMapForVersion(Version version)
                                         throws HL7Exception

Returns the event map for a given HL7 version. In this map, the key is a message type and trigger event in the form [type]_[trigger], for example: ADT_A04, and the values are the corresponding structure for this trigger, for example: ADT_A01.

Parameters:

version - the HL7 version

Returns:

Returns null if no event map is found for the given version

Throws:

HL7Exception - if the HL7 version is unknown

loadMessageStructures

protected Map<Version,Map<String,String>> loadMessageStructures()
                                                         throws IOException
