This document is a section of the [LexEVS 6.0 Programmer's Guide|LexEVS 6.0 Programmer's Guide]. NEEDS UPDATING

The Value Set services are integrated parts of the LexEVS API. It provide three major functions:

* *Administration* - Ability to load, export and remove value set definitions
** Loader - Ability to load Value Set Definitions programmatically into the LexGrid repository using the domain objects that are available via the LexGrid logical model
** Exporter - Ability to export Value Set Definition and Value Set Resolution to a file in LexGrid XML format
** Remove - Ability to remove Value Set Definition from the system
{info:title=Note}These administration operations can be performed in LexEVS 'Local' environment only. This can not be performed using LexEVS Distributed environment.{info}
 **Query* - Ability to apply user restrictions (ex: valueSet URI) and dynamically resolve the definitions at run time
 **Resolve* - Ability to resolve Value Set Definition dynamically against selected Coding Scheme Version(s) and return all the concepts belonging to the value set

The LexEVS Value Set Services expose the API particularly for the Value Set Definition elements of the LexGrid Logical Model. For more information on LexGrid model see the [LexGrid model schema|VKC:LexBig_Model_and_Schema]

Resolve Functions

Rsolve functions provides the capability to resolve the value set definition against specific coding scheme version and get back the list of entities that belongs to the value set. If no coding scheme version is provided, the API will pick the latest version of the coding scheme.

There are two separate functions available to resolve value set definition :

  • Resolve Stored Value Set Definition - This function allows you to resolve value set definition that are loaded in the system.
  • Resolve Supplied Value Set Definition - This function allows you to pass a ValueSetDefinition object that may not be loaded in the system and get it resolved.

Resolving Stored Value Set Definition

This function resolves the value set definition that is loaded in the system and returns set of valied concept codes plus the code systems and its versions that were used.
