[HAPI-devel] Method for Parsing Messages of Different Versions

[Matias K. <ma...@et...>]

Hello,

I've just started testing HAPI v0.4.1.  I'm trying to parse an incoming 
  ADT message.

Does anyone know if there is a way I can make an ADTProcessor class that 
is HL7 version independent?  I want this class to be able to parse a 
specific message type (i.e. ADT_A04) regardless of whether the message 
is v2.3.1, v2.4, or another?

Do I have to import ca.uhn.hl7v2.model.v231.message.*, 
ca.uhn.hl7v2.model.v24.message.*, etc., check the version of the 
incoming message, and then use the version specific model classes? Is 
there a better way?

Thanks,

Matias
