Method Detail

getMessage

public String getMessage()

Specified by:

getMessage in interface Transportable

Returns:

the text of an HL7 message (either ER7 or XML encoding).

See Also:

Transportable.getMessage()

getMetadata

public Map<String,Object> getMetadata()

Specified by:

getMetadata in interface Transportable

Returns:

metadata associated with the message. If the message is being sent to a TransportLayer, this may include selected message fields (eg to facilitate routing based on MSH fields without re-parsing the message). If the message is being received, this may include information such as the IP address of the server from which the message was received (this depends on the underlying TransportLayer used). Message fields are keyed with Terser path names.
