Dan,
What do you mean by local graph? If you are just trying to extract and put it into another object than Terser until makes life much more easier. I can see following options: 1. Get Message parsed using Generic Parser 2. Create the empty Object for your target object 3. Get the Segments from parsed messages 4. Use Terser to get the values Hope this helps. Thanks.

In doing so, I need to account for repeating fields. For example, PID-5 can have multiple names and we need to parse it out into a List of PatientName objects (each PatientName object contains family name, given name, and name type code). Since we need to support many versions of HL7 we can not use a specific v 2.x model data types. Instead we are relying on the generic: ca.uhn.hl7v2.model.Message ca.uhn.hl7v2.util.Terser to parse the message. I have had a difficult time finding simple examples of parsing repeating fields using these generic classes. I realize if we used ca.uhn.hl7v2.model.v25.message it would be easier to do this, but we need to remain version agnostic. Can anyone assist me in a simple way to extract a repeating field as mentioned above?
