Hi Ian,
There are two options here. The traditional way is to use "custom
packages". To do this, you create your custom structure, call it "ORU_R01",
put it in a specific package and create a property file that points to it.
There is a description of this functionality here:
http://hl7api.sourceforge.net/apidocs/ca/uhn/hl7v2/parser/DefaultModelClassFactory.html#packageList%28java.lang.String%29
One other way you might look to do this is with a new implementation of a
ModelClassFactory which always instantiates your structure and then passing
it to the parser that your SimpleServer uses. If you only ever receive this
one type of message on this particular interface, this is probably your far
easier option. (Incidentally, if you do this and happen to want to
contribute back an example, we would certainly welcome that :) )
Cheers,
James
