Detailed Descriptions for the elements in the extension.
Extension | |
Element Id | Extension |
Definition | Whether the binding is used on multiple resources, or only on this resource. |
Control | 0..1 This element is affected by the following invariants: ele-1 |
Comments | Some bindings are defined once internally and used in many places. This extension marks those bindings, to allow for generating the binding information once when generating code. When isCommonBinding is true, bindingName will be the same, and unique (e.g. identify re-uses by looking at bindingName). |
Invariants | Defined on this element ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children (xpath: @value|f:*|h:div) ext-1: Must have either extensions or value[x], not both (xpath: exists(f:extension)!=exists(f:*[starts-with(local-name(.), 'value')])) |
Extension.id | |
Element Id | Extension.id |
Definition | Unique id for the element within a resource (for internal references). This may be any string value that does not contain spaces. |
Control | 0..1 |
Type | string |
Extension.extension | |
Element Id | Extension.extension |
Definition | An Extension |
Control | 0..0 |
Type | Extension |
Slicing | This element introduces a set of slices. The slicing rules are:
|
Extension.url | |
Element Id | Extension.url |
Definition | Source of the definition for the extension code - a logical name or a URL. |
Control | 1..1 |
Type | uri |
Comments | The definition may point directly to a computable or human-readable definition of the extensibility codes, or it may be a logical URI as declared in some other specification. The definition SHALL be a URI for the Structure Definition defining the extension. |
Fixed Value | http://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/elementdefinition-isCommonBinding |
Extension.valueBoolean | |
Element Id | Extension.valueBoolean |
Definition | Value of extension - may be a resource or one of a constrained set of the data types (see Extensibility in the spec for list). |
Control | 0..1 |
Type | boolean |
