Interface AcceptValidator.AcceptRuling

Enclosing interface:
AcceptValidator
public static interface AcceptValidator.AcceptRuling
Represents a decision regarding whether a message can be initially accepted for further processing. As per HL7 specs, for original-mode messages, a message should be accepted at this stage if the system thinks it can handle the message based on MSH-9, 11, and 12 values (assuming these can be parsed). In enhanced mode, the above checks are optional. Also optional is a check for syntactical correctness. Mandatory checks include availability of safe storage and "interface status".

      Returns:
      the ACK code corresponding to the ruling, if any. Ie "AR", "CE", "CR", or "CA". If in original mode, null is returned for non-"AR" situations. This is because only the application layer can tell whether the answer is "AE" or "AA".
