Enum Constant Summary

Enum Constants

Enum Constant	Description
CLASSIFIEDWITH	Child concepts in the hierarchy may have only one parent, and there is a presumption that the code system is a "closed world" meaning all things must be in the hierarchy.
GROUPEDBY	No particular relationship between the concepts can be assumed, except what can be determined by inspection of the definitions of the elements (possible reasons to use this: importing from a source where this is not defined, or where various parts of the hierarchy have different meanings).
ISA	A hierarchy where the child concepts have an IS-A relationship with the parents - that is, all the properties of the parent are also true for its child concepts.
NULL	added to help the parsers with the generic types
PARTOF	Child elements list the individual parts of a composite whole (e.g.

GROUPEDBY

public static final CodeSystem.CodeSystemHierarchyMeaning GROUPEDBY

No particular relationship between the concepts can be assumed, except what can be determined by inspection of the definitions of the elements (possible reasons to use this: importing from a source where this is not defined, or where various parts of the hierarchy have different meanings).

ISA

public static final CodeSystem.CodeSystemHierarchyMeaning ISA

A hierarchy where the child concepts have an IS-A relationship with the parents - that is, all the properties of the parent are also true for its child concepts. Not that is-a is a property of the concepts, so additional subsumption relationships may be defined using properties or the [subsumes](extension-codesystem-subsumes.html) extension.

PARTOF

public static final CodeSystem.CodeSystemHierarchyMeaning PARTOF

Child elements list the individual parts of a composite whole (e.g. body site).

CLASSIFIEDWITH

public static final CodeSystem.CodeSystemHierarchyMeaning CLASSIFIEDWITH

Child concepts in the hierarchy may have only one parent, and there is a presumption that the code system is a "closed world" meaning all things must be in the hierarchy. This results in concepts such as "not otherwise classified.".

NULL

public static final CodeSystem.CodeSystemHierarchyMeaning NULL

Method Details

values

public static CodeSystem.CodeSystemHierarchyMeaning[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared.

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static CodeSystem.CodeSystemHierarchyMeaning valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null
