Interface AcceptValidator

public interface AcceptValidator

Determines whether messages are acceptable for storage. See HL7 v2.5 chapter 2 for relevant specifications. In original-mode processing, validation at this level includes checking whether MSH-9, 11, and 12 have appropriate values.

In enhanced mode, the above checks are optional. Checking for syntactical correctness is also optional. However storage availability and interface status must be checked.
