Hi Bartłomiej,
I have never heard of a situation where a single port is used to both send
and receive messages, at least not in the way that you describe. HL7 v2
transactions are typically only one direction on a single port (there is
always data that flows back on that port, but it's an acknowledgement, or a
response message if the original message was a query of some sort).
It seems to me that this would be a problematic setup anyhow- If either
application was sending messages on the same port whenever they wanted, you
would have collisions and very unpredictable behaviour if both applications
decided to send a message at the same time.
It would probably be worth confirming with the vendor of the other system
how they are expecting this to work. My guess is that if you have an
application that will sometimes send data to that system, and at other
times receive data from that system, you need to have one client and one
server on your system, and they will also have one client and one server on
theirs. This is how 99.9% of the HL7 v2 world works.
Cheers,
James
