Method Detail

id

public Element.Builder id(String id)

Unique id for the element within a resource (for internal references). This may be any string value that does not contain spaces.

Parameters:

id - Unique id for inter-element referencing

Returns:

A reference to this Builder instance

extension

public Element.Builder extension(Extension... extension)

May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the element. 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 can define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension.

Adds new element(s) to the existing list

Parameters:

extension - Additional content defined by implementations

Returns:

A reference to this Builder instance

extension

public Element.Builder extension(Collection<Extension> extension)

May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the element. 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 can define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension.

Replaces the existing list with a new one containing elements from the Collection

Parameters:

extension - Additional content defined by implementations

Returns:

A reference to this Builder instance
