public abstract class Element extends Base implements org.hl7.fhir.instance.model.api.IBaseHasExtensions, org.hl7.fhir.instance.model.api.IBaseElement
Base definition for all elements in a resource.
See Also:
  • Field Details

    • id

      protected StringType id
      unique id for the element within a resource (for internal references). This may be any string value that does not contain spaces.
    • extension

      protected List<Extension> extension
      May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the element. In order to make the use of extensions safe and manageable, there is a strict set of governance applied to the definition and use of extensions. Though any implementer is allowed to define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension.

  • Method Details

    • getIdElement

      Returns:
      id (unique id for the element within a resource (for internal references). This may be any string value that does not contain spaces.). This is the underlying object with id, value and extensions. The accessor "getId" gives direct access to the value

      public boolean hasIdElement()
    • hasId

      public boolean hasId()
    • setIdElement

      Parameters:
      value - id (unique id for the element within a resource (for internal references). This may be any string value that does not contain spaces.). This is the underlying object with id, value and extensions. The accessor "getId" gives direct access to the value
    • getId

      public String getId()
      Specified by:
      getId in interface org.hl7.fhir.instance.model.api.IBaseElement
      Returns:
      unique id for the element within a resource (for internal references). This may be any string value that does not contain spaces.
    • setId

      public Element setId(String value)
      Specified by:
      setId in interface org.hl7.fhir.instance.model.api.IBaseElement
      Parameters:
      value - unique id for the element within a resource (for internal references). This may be any string value that does not contain spaces.
