    • getCodeElement

      public abstract CodeDt getCodeElement()
      Gets the value(s) for code (Symbol in syntax defined by the system). creating it if it does not exist. Will not return null.

      Definition: A symbol in syntax defined by the system. The symbol may be a predefined code or an expression in a syntax defined by the coding system (e.g. post-coordination)

    • getQueryParameterQualifier

      Description copied from interface: IQueryParameterType
      This method will return any qualifier that should be appended to the parameter name (e.g ":exact"). Returns null if none are present.
      Specified by:
      getQueryParameterQualifier in interface IQueryParameterType
    • getSystemElement

      public abstract UriDt getSystemElement()
      Gets the value(s) for system (Identity of the terminology system). creating it if it does not exist. Will not return null.

      Definition: The identification of the code system that defines the meaning of the symbol in the code.

    • getVersionElement

      public abstract StringDt getVersionElement()
    • getUserSelectedElement

      public abstract BooleanDt getUserSelectedElement()
    • getDisplayElement

      public abstract StringDt getDisplayElement()
      Gets the value(s) for display (Representation defined by the system). creating it if it does not exist. Will not return null.

      Definition: A representation of the meaning of the code in the system, following the rules of the system.

    • setDisplay

      public abstract BaseCodingDt setDisplay(String theString)
    • getValueAsQueryToken

      Returns a representation of this parameter's value as it will be represented "over the wire". In other words, how it will be presented in a URL (although not URL escaped)

      See FHIR specification 2.2.2 Search SearchParameter Types for information on the token format

      Specified by:
      getValueAsQueryToken in interface IQueryParameterType
      Parameters:
      theContext - TODO
      Returns:
      Returns a representation of this parameter's value as it will be represented "over the wire". In other words, how it will be presented in a URL (although not URL escaped)
    • setValueAsQueryToken

      public void setValueAsQueryToken(FhirContext theContext, String theParamName, String theQualifier, String theParameter)
      This method is generally only called by HAPI itself, and should not need to be called from user code.

      See FHIR specification 2.2.2 Search SearchParameter Types for information on the token format

      Specified by:
      setValueAsQueryToken in interface IQueryParameterType
      Parameters:
      theContext - TODO
      theParamName - TODO
      theQualifier - The parameter name qualifier that accompanied this value. For example, if the complete query was http://foo?name:exact=John, qualifier would be ":exact"
      theParameter - The actual parameter value. For example, if the complete query was http://foo?name:exact=John, the value would be "John"
    • matchesSystemAndCode

      public boolean matchesSystemAndCode(BaseCodingDt theCoding)
      Returns true if this Coding has the same Code and system (as compared by simple equals comparison). Does not compare other Codes (e.g. getUseElement()) or any extensions.
    • matchesToken

      public boolean matchesToken(BaseCodingDt theSearchParam)
      returns true if this Coding matches a search for the coding specified by theSearchParam, according to the following:
      • [parameter]=[namespace]|[code] matches a code/value in the given system namespace
      • [parameter]=[code] matches a code/value irrespective of it's system namespace
      • [parameter]=|[code] matches a code/value that has no system namespace
      Parameters:
      theSearchParam - - coding to test this against
      Returns:
      true if the coding matches, false otherwise
    • setCode

      public abstract BaseCodingDt setCode(String theCode)
      Sets the value for code (Symbol in syntax defined by the system)

      Definition: A symbol in syntax defined by the system. The symbol may be a predefined code or an expression in a syntax defined by the coding system (e.g. post-coordination)

    • setSystem

      public abstract BaseCodingDt setSystem(String theUri)
      Sets the value for system (Identity of the terminology system)

      Definition: The identification of the code system that defines the meaning of the symbol in the code.
