Hi Adam, with respect to extensions: - the XML archetypes could well become .xadl or .xaom (aom = archetype object model) files. - the XML templates should probably become .xts (ts = template specification), because there will also be an operational template file, which is a template with all substitutions done, with an extension like .xot (ot = operational template) or .xtom (tom = template object model). The current 'templates' are template 'specifications', i.e. a set of differences with respect to archetypes. The 'operational' form is what can be used to create message definitions from, and can be used at runtime.
These changes plus the forthcoming standardised template models themselves will come through the openEHR process, so the final results in the template area will most likely differ from the current .oet files. - thomas beale Adam Flinton wrote: > Dear All, > > I have build a complete publishing system for OpenEHR. > > It ends up in part with a bunch of href's in an HTML page e.g. if it > finds errors then it creates a link to the file in the relevant working > copy. > > 2 points: > > A) Wrt .adl I can set the filetype etc in windows & when I clik on a > link to an adl, the archetype editor opens with that file. > > Hurray. > > However......If I click on a .oet even if I set the template designer to > be the default file handler I just get a Dr Watson with > > EventType : clr20r3 P1 : templatedesigner.exe P2 : 1.0.1244.410 > P3 : 47608b1a P4 : mscorlib P5 : 2.0.0.0 P6 : 4333ab80 > P7 : 26bb > P8 : 38 P9 : system.argumentexception > > > Can the template designer open a .oet if passed by a browser or clicked > with a mouse having set the file association? > > It would be nice if it could as for instance wrt errors, this allows the > user to simply click on the file link, the relevant editor opens, the > fix can be made & the file saved. > > > B) Obviously.... .xml is a commonly used extension......as such is there > any plan to swap to say .xadl before too many peopel start building > round .xml files? e.g. right now it will be easy for me to re-adjust > form .xml to .xadl. > > > Adam > > > > > > ********************************************************************** > This message may contain confidential and privileged information. > If you are not the intended recipient please accept our apologies. > Please do not disclose, copy or distribute information in this e-mail > or take any action in reliance on its contents: to do so is strictly > prohibited and may be unlawful.
