public class MedDRALoaderImpl extends BaseLoader implements MedDRA_Loader 

This defines a load and validation methods and creates initialized class attributes name and description.  The name of this interface will eventually be used by the LexEVS extension function to call the loader into existence.  (Loaders are always extensions to LexEVS).

...

This allows the BaseLoader functions to access the results of the load of the MedDRA source file into a LexEVS coding scheme object.

    @Override
    public void load(URI uri, URI cuiUri, boolean stopOnErrors, boolean async) throws LBParameterException,
            LBInvocationException {
        this.getOptions().getBooleanOption(FAIL_ON_ERROR_OPTION).setOptionValue(stopOnErrors);
        this.getOptions().getBooleanOption(ASYNC_OPTION).setOptionValue(async);
        this.getOptions().getURIOption(UMLSCUI_FILE_OPTION).setOptionValue(cuiUri);
        UMLSCUISource = cuiUri;
        this.load(uri);
    }

This method adds a UMLS CUI source file option for the end user to load as a supplement to the regular MedDRA load.
