RE: [HAPI-devel] HAPI-openadaptor integration

[Tripp, B. <Bry...@uh...>]

Hi Fr=E9d=E9ric,=20
=20
Thanks for pointing this out.  No, I wasn't aware of it, and it looks =
very
powerful.  I'd be interested in hearing more about how you integrated =
it
with HAPI.  Is your integration mainly in terms of sending and =
receiving
messages, or are there other aspects?  The message exchange part may be
easier with HAPI's new transport design.  It's based on this interface
(against which the message processing code is written):=20
=20
ca.uhn.hl7v2.protocol.TransportLayer
+ send(Transportable)=20
+ receive() : Transportable
+ connect()
+ disconnect()
=20
At first glance, it looks like this maps well to the "adaptor" concept =
of
openadaptor, so I suspect it would be straightforward to write an
OpenadaptorTransport, which it seems would be quite useful. =20

Subject: [HAPI-devel] HAPI-openadaptor integration


Tripp, Bryan a =E9crit :


Major upcoming items are as follows:=20



1) Improved transport, including JMS and HTTP as well as MLLP, and =
easier

inclusion of SSL (80% complete)

 =20

Had you a look at www.openadaptor.org <http://www.openadaptor.org> ?
openadaptor is a Java/XML-based EAI framework, which provides =
everything
needed to exchange data like HL7 messages by JMS, sockets, files, etc. =
You
can find also some basic mapping functions, allowing to map database =
columns
to HL7 fields, for instance. In our hospital, we have based all our
integration solutions on openadaptor + HAPI + JBossMQ (as JMS server) +
Nagios (as monitoring tool). I spent much time to integrate HAPI into
openadaptor, and I find the result not so bad: we have now a unified
platform to exchange whatever data: HL7, Dicom, financial data, etc. My
first HL7 program based on this is running in our production =
environment
since one year.

Bryan, feel free to ask me more details or examples, if you are =
interested
on this integration.

Regards,
