    • Method Detail

      • getSubstance

        public Element getSubstance()
        A pointer to another substance, as a resource or just a representational code.
        Returns:
        An immutable object of type Reference or CodeableConcept that may be null.
      • getRelationship

        public CodeableConcept getRelationship()
        For example "salt to parent", "active moiety", "starting material".
        Returns:
        An immutable object of type CodeableConcept that may be null.
      • getIsDefining

        public Boolean getIsDefining()
        For example where an enzyme strongly bonds with a particular substance, this is a defining relationship for that enzyme, out of several possible substance relationships.
        Returns:
        An immutable object of type Boolean that may be null.
      • getAmount

        public Element getAmount()
        A numeric factor for the relationship, for instance to express that the salt of a substance has some percentage of the active substance in relation to some other.
        Returns:
        An immutable object of type Quantity, Range, Ratio or String that may be null.
      • getAmountRatioLowLimit

        public Ratio getAmountRatioLowLimit()
        For use when the numeric.
        Returns:
        An immutable object of type Ratio that may be null.
      • getAmountType

        public CodeableConcept getAmountType()
        An operator for the amount, for example "average", "approximately", "less than".
        Returns:
        An immutable object of type CodeableConcept that may be null.
      • getSource

        public List<Reference> getSource()
        Supporting literature.
        Returns:
        An unmodifiable list containing immutable objects of type Reference that may be empty.
      • accept

        public void accept​(String elementName,
                           int elementIndex,
                           Visitor visitor)
        Description copied from interface: Visitable
        Accept a Visitor and invoke the appropriate visit methods. A typical implementation would look like this:
         if (visitor.preVisit(this)) {
             visitor.visitStart(elementName, elementIndex, this);
             if (visitor.visit(elementName, elementIndex, this)) {
                 // visit children
             }
             visitor.visitEnd(elementName, elementIndex, this);
             visitor.postVisit(this);
         }
         
        Specified by:
        accept in interface Visitable
        Specified by:
        accept in class AbstractVisitable
        Parameters:
        elementName - the name of the element in the context of this visit
        elementIndex - the index of the element in a list or -1 if it is not contained within a List
        visitor - the visitor to use
      • hashCode

        public int hashCode()
        Overrides:
        hashCode in class Object
