The specification is technically no longer backward compatible, primarily because the special C_DV_ORDINAL and C_DV_QUANTITY syntaxes are no longer supported - in fact the whole openEHR Archetype profile is obsolete in ADL 1.5. However, tools can easily convert from 1.4 to 1.5, and I have made the ADL Workbench work like this. The programming patterns for supporting these ADL 1.4 special types are easy enough and can be copied from my code into Java or any other parser. To help with retro-fitting this kind of functionality, I'll document the relevant parts of the parser on the wiki page, and am happy to provide any guidance on it. - thomas -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
