LexEVS 6.2 CTS2 Overview of Changes

LexEVS 6.2 CTS2 release consisted of the following changes:

• Interactive CTS2 API Documentation
• Value Set Services
• Entities Active Flag
• LexEVS 6.2 CTS2 Alternate Landing Page
• Upgrade to CTS2 1.1 framework
• Updated LexEVS CTS2 Service to the CTS2 1.1 specification as implemented in the CTS2 Development Framework

Additionally, the LexEVS 6.0 CTS2 API code base has been removed in this release.

 CTS2 API Documentation

Interactive CTS2 API Documentation is also available for LexEVS CTS2 6.2.

• Note that issue LEXEVSCTS2-21 will affect value set resolution REST calls with value set names greater than 50 characters.  This will be fixed in the next release.

Value Set Services

In LexEVS 6.2 CTS2, the following profile was implemented:

...

http://<base url>/valueset/<value set name>/definition/<value set id>/resolution

The following CTS2 Value Set Query services have been implemented:

...

http://<base url>/codesystem/Automobiles/version/1.0/entities?active=ACTIVE_AND_INACTIVE

...

Upgrade of CTS2 Services to CTS2 1.1

The existing CTS2 landing page (http://<server name>/cts2) redirected to the CTS2 Framework homepage.  LexEVS 6.2 CTS2 service allows the CTS2 landing page to redirect to an alternate page.

To add an alternate homepage, the following optional properties file will need to be created (if it is not already):

webapp-config.properties

• Create this new (optional properties file) in $USER_HOME/.cts2/[context]/config

This webapp-config.properties file should, at a minimum, include the following lines:

service.pid=edu.mayo.cts2.framework.webapp.rest.config
alternateHomePage=<URL to alternate location>

...

CTS2 compliant REST service was updated from the 1.0 to 1.1 version of the CTS2 specification. This updated CTS2 compliant service provides core support of the Common Terminology Services 2 (CTS2) 1.1 Image Added functionality as described in the OMG CTS2 specification 1.1 Image Added .
