Code | Display | Definition |
literal | Literal References | The server supports and populates Literal references (i.e. using Reference.reference) where they are known (this code does not guarantee that all references are literal; see 'enforced'). |
logical | Logical References | The server allows logical references (i.e. using Reference.identifier). |
resolves | Resolves References | The server will attempt to resolve logical references to literal references - i.e. converting Reference.identifier to Reference.reference (if resolution fails, the server may still accept resources; see logical). |
enforced | Reference Integrity Enforced | The server enforces that references have integrity - e.g. it ensures that references can always be resolved. This is typically the case for clinical record systems, but often not the case for middleware/proxy systems. |
local | Local References Only | The server does not support references that point to other servers. |
