Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
Boolean	getMissing()	If set to non-null value, indicates that this parameter has been populated with a "[name]:missing=true" or "[name]:missing=false" vale instead of a normal value
String	getQueryParameterQualifier()	This method will return any qualifier that should be appended to the parameter name (e.g ":exact").
String	getValueAsQueryToken(FhirContext theContext)	Returns a representation of this parameter's value as it will be represented "over the wire".
IQueryParameterType	setMissing(Boolean theMissing)	If set to non-null value, indicates that this parameter has been populated with a "[name]:missing=true" or "[name]:missing=false" vale instead of a normal value
void	setValueAsQueryToken(FhirContext theContext, String theParamName, String theQualifier, String theValue)	This method is generally only called by HAPI itself, and should not need to be called from user code.

Method Detail

setValueAsQueryToken

void setValueAsQueryToken(FhirContext theContext,
                          String theParamName,
                          String theQualifier,
                          String theValue)

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

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"

theValue - The actual parameter value. For example, if the complete query was http://foo?name:exact=John, the value would be "John"

getValueAsQueryToken

String getValueAsQueryToken(FhirContext theContext)

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

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)

getQueryParameterQualifier

String getQueryParameterQualifier()

This method will return any qualifier that should be appended to the parameter name (e.g ":exact"). Returns null if none are present.

getMissing

Boolean getMissing()

If set to non-null value, indicates that this parameter has been populated with a "[name]:missing=true" or "[name]:missing=false" vale instead of a normal value

setMissing

IQueryParameterType setMissing(Boolean theMissing)

If set to non-null value, indicates that this parameter has been populated with a "[name]:missing=true" or "[name]:missing=false" vale instead of a normal value

Returns:

Returns a reference to this for easier method chaining
