processMessage

public Message processMessage(Message in)
                       throws ApplicationException

processException

public String processException(String incomingMessage,
                      String outgoingMessage,
                      Exception e)
                        throws HL7Exception

Deprecated.

Forwards the given exception to all Applications. TODO this may call itself leading to infinite loops

Specified by:

processException in interface ApplicationExceptionHandler

Parameters:

incomingMessage - the incoming message. This is the raw message which was received from the external system

outgoingMessage - the outgoing message. The response NAK message generated by HAPI.

e - the exception

Returns:

The new outgoing message. This can be set to the value provided by HAPI in outgoingMessage, or may be replaced with another message.

HL7Exception

registerApplication

public void registerApplication(String messageType,
                       String triggerEvent,
                       Application handler)

Deprecated.

Registers the given application to handle messages corresponding to the given type and trigger event. Only one application can be registered for a given message type and trigger event combination. A repeated registration for a particular combination of type and trigger event over-writes the previous one. Use "*" as a wildcard (e.g. registerApplication("ADT", "*", myApp) would register your app for all ADT messages).
