Hi Ian, If I understand what Thomas said "I would suggest that the GUI templates just reference paths found in the openEHR template", the paths in a GUI Template will come "only" from openEHR templates (the structural ones), not from archetypes (this is apart from that they are technically the same thing).
I think in ADL 1.4 the template specification is not complete, I would say that in 1.4 Templates are not so clear Archetype specializations. In ADL 1.5 is more clear the relationship of Templates and Archetypes. What I meant in the previous mail was: for us who have developed applications over ADL 1.4, our GUI Templates will use paths "directly" from Archetypes, instead of paths from openEHR structural Templates. -- Kind regards, A/C Pablo Pazos Guti?rrez LinkedIn: http://uy.linkedin.com/in/pablopazosgutierrez Blog: http://informatica-medica.blogspot.com/ Twitter: http://twitter.com/ppazos > From: Ian.McNicoll at oceaninformatics.com > Date: Wed, 8 Dec 2010 17:30:38 +0000 > Subject: Re: GUI-directives/hints again (Was: Developing usable GUIs) > To: openehr-technical at openehr.org > > Hi Pablo, > > In both ADL1.4 and 1.5 every path is still an archetype-based path. > The proposed schema for an operational template is very similar to the > XML schema of an individual archetype but obviously includes multiple > aggregated archetypes and omits any nodes which are constrained out. > > Templates are technically identical to specialised archetypes.
