Hi. I have a question that concernes this piece of code: public static void main(final String[] args0) { String adta28 = "MSH|^~\\&|LIS|XYZ|KJH|YTR|20120119121356.5840+0100||ADT^A28|HL7Gtw0134F5AC4B6800|P|2.5\r"+ "EVN|A28|20120119121333||||20120119121333\r"+ "PID|1||2001458280^^^^LIS||PROVA^PROVA\r"+ "PV1|1|N"; Parser p = new GenericParser(); Message message; try { message = p.parse(adta28); System.out.println("before: "+p.encode(message)); Terser terser = new Terser(message); String one = terser.get("/.PID-3(1)-1"); String two = terser.get("/.PID-3(2)-1"); System.out.println("after: "+p.encode(message)); } catch (Exception e) { e.printStackTrace(); } } This is the output of the above code: before: MSH|^~\&|LIS|XYZ|KJH|YTR|20120119121356.5840+0100||ADT^A28|HL7Gtw0134F5AC4B6800|P|2.5 EVN|A28|20120119121333||||20120119121333 PID|1||2001458280^^^^LIS||PROVA^PROVA PV1|1|N after: MSH|^~\&|LIS|XYZ|KJH|YTR|20120119121356.5840+0100||ADT^A28|HL7Gtw0134F5AC4B6800|P|2.5 EVN|A28|20120119121333||||20120119121333 PID|1||2001458280^^^^LIS~~||PROVA^PROVA PV1|1|N Why is the PID-3 different in the 'after 'output? I do terser.get operations on null repetitions and I would expect the PID-3 in the message not to change. But the message changes. I get two extra ~. Is there a workaround to do the get-operations and leave the message unmodified? Thanks a lot. Lorenzo Michelutti Ps. I use v0.6 but it's the same with v1.2
