Field Detail

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 Detail

getIdElement

public StringType 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

hasIdElement

public boolean hasIdElement()

hasId

public boolean hasId()

setIdElement

public Element setIdElement(StringType value)

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 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 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.

getExtension

public List<Extension> getExtension()

Specified by:

getExtension in interface IBaseHasExtensions

Returns:

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.)

setExtension

public Element setExtension(List<Extension> theExtension)

Returns:

Returns a reference to this for easy method chaining

hasExtension

Specified by:

addExtension in interface IBaseHasExtensions

addExtension

getExtensionFirstRep

public Extension getExtensionFirstRep()

Returns:

getExtensionsByUrl

public List<Extension> getExtensionsByUrl(String theUrl)

Returns an unmodifiable list containing all extensions on this element which match the given URL.

Parameters:

theUrl - The URL. Must not be blank or null.

Returns:

an unmodifiable list containing all extensions on this element which match the given URL
