Enum Constant Summary

Enum Constants

Enum Constant	Description
EXISTS	The slices are differentiated by the presence or absence of the nominated element.
NULL	added to help the parsers with the generic types
PATTERN	The slices have different values in the nominated element, as determined by the applicable fixed value, pattern, or required ValueSet binding.
POSITION	The slices are differentiated by their index.
PROFILE	The slices are differentiated by conformance of the nominated element to a specified profile.
TYPE	The slices are differentiated by type of the nominated element.
VALUE	The slices have different values in the nominated element, as determined by the applicable fixed value, pattern, or required ValueSet binding.

Enum Constant Details

VALUE

public static final ElementDefinition.DiscriminatorType VALUE

The slices have different values in the nominated element, as determined by the applicable fixed value, pattern, or required ValueSet binding.

EXISTS

public static final ElementDefinition.DiscriminatorType EXISTS

The slices are differentiated by the presence or absence of the nominated element. There SHALL be no more than two slices. The slices are differentiated by the fact that one must have a max of 0 and the other must have a min of 1 (or more). The order in which the slices are declared doesn't matter.

PATTERN

public static final ElementDefinition.DiscriminatorType PATTERN

The slices have different values in the nominated element, as determined by the applicable fixed value, pattern, or required ValueSet binding. This has the same meaning as 'value' and is deprecated.

TYPE

public static final ElementDefinition.DiscriminatorType TYPE

The slices are differentiated by type of the nominated element.

PROFILE

public static final ElementDefinition.DiscriminatorType PROFILE

The slices are differentiated by conformance of the nominated element to a specified profile. Note that if the path specifies .resolve() then the profile is the target profile on the reference. In this case, validation by the possible profiles is required to differentiate the slices.

POSITION

public static final ElementDefinition.DiscriminatorType POSITION

The slices are differentiated by their index. This is only possible if all but the last slice have min=max cardinality, and the (optional) last slice contains other undifferentiated elements.

NULL

public static final ElementDefinition.DiscriminatorType NULL

added to help the parsers with the generic types

Method Details

values

public static ElementDefinition.DiscriminatorType[] 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 ElementDefinition.DiscriminatorType 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
