getMessage
java.lang.String getMessage()
- Returns:
- the text of an HL7 message (either ER7 or XML encoding).
getMetadata
java.util.Map getMetadata()
- Returns:
- metadata associated with the message. If the message is being
sent to a
TransportLayer
, this may include selected message fields
(eg to facilitate routing based on MSH fields without re-parsing the
message). If the message is being received, this may include
information such as the IP address of the server from which the message
was received (this depends on the underlying TransportLayer
used).
Message fields are keyed with Terser
path names.
