LexEVS Value Domain Service API

...

This method resolves the supplied value domain and returns only those concept codes that matches the supplied term.

getValueDomainEntitiesForTerm(String term, URI valueDomainURI, String matchAlgorithm) getValueDomainEntitiesForTerm(String term, URI valueDomainURI, String matchAlgorithm)

Description:

Resolves the value domain supplied and restricts it to the term and matchAlgorith supplied. The returned object ResolvedValueDomainCodedNodeSet contains the codingScheme URI and Version that was used to resolve and the CodedNodeSet.

Info
titleNote

The CodedNodeSet is unresolved.

Input:

java.lang.String,
java.net.URI,
java.lang.String

Output:

org.lexgrid.valuedomain.dto.ResolvedValueDomainCodedNodeSet

Exception:

org.LexGrid.LexBIG.Exceptions.LBException

Implementation Details:

Implementation:
Step 1: Call this method on the associated LexEVS Value Domain Service instance to get the resolved Value Domain Entries as CodedNodeSet that is restricted to the supplied term and the match algorithm. The returned CodedNodeSet is not resolved.
Sample Call:

  • Step 1: Instantiate LexEVSValueDomainServices if it is not done yet :
    Code Block
    org.lexgrid.valuedomain.LexEVSValueDomainServices vds = new org.lexgrid.valuedomain.impl.LexEVSValueDomainServicesImpl();
  • Step 2: Call getValueDomainEntriesForTerm method:
    Code Block
    ResolvedValueDomainCodedNodeSet vdvns = vds.getValueDomainEntriesForTerm ("General Motors", new URI("AUTO:AllDomesticANDGM"), MatchAlgorithms.exactMatch.name();
