#236 Documentation - http content type not recognized

[Michael Hsueh]

Hello,

First off, props on all the work the team has put into Hapi! My engineering team at a Silicon-Valley startup is currently building out a prescriptive analytics platform for hospitals. We're using Hapi over HTTP for part of this, and noticed a discrepancy with the docs and code during testing.

The accepted content type specified is indicated as "x-application/hl7-v2+er7" for pipe encoded messages.
source: http://hl7api.sourceforge.net/hapi-hl7overhttp/specification.html#a2.4_Content_Type_and_Character_Set

However, a server we made using the drop-in LLP replacement method does not recognize that type.
ca.uhn.hl7v2.hoh.api.NonHl7ResponseException: Invalid Content-Type: x-application/hl7-v2+er7

Dug through Hapi source code and found "application/hl7-v2" specified in the ca.uhn.hl7v2.hoh.encoder.EncodingStyle enum. Changing to that content type caused the unrecognized content type error to go away.

Apologies in advance if this is actually some weird error caused on our end.

Thanks,
Michael
