Method Detail- 
idpublic Linkage.Builder id(java.lang.String id) The logical id of the resource, as used in the URL for the resource. Once assigned, this value never changes.- Overrides:
- idin class- DomainResource.Builder
- Parameters:
- id- Logical id of this artifact
- Returns:
- A reference to this Builder instance
 
 - 
metapublic Linkage.Builder meta(Meta meta) The metadata about the resource. This is content that is maintained by the infrastructure. Changes to the content might not always be associated with version changes to the resource.- Overrides:
- metain class- DomainResource.Builder
- Parameters:
- meta- Metadata about the resource
- Returns:
- A reference to this Builder instance
 
 - 
implicitRulespublic Linkage.Builder implicitRules(Uri implicitRules) A reference to a set of rules that were followed when the resource was constructed, and which must be understood when processing the content. Often, this is a reference to an implementation guide that defines the special rules along with other profiles etc.- Overrides:
- implicitRulesin class- DomainResource.Builder
- Parameters:
- implicitRules- A set of rules under which this content was created
- Returns:
- A reference to this Builder instance
 
 - 
languagepublic Linkage.Builder language(Code language) The base language in which the resource is written.- Overrides:
- languagein class- DomainResource.Builder
- Parameters:
- language- Language of the resource content
- Returns:
- A reference to this Builder instance
 
 - 
textpublic Linkage.Builder text(Narrative text) A human-readable narrative that contains a summary of the resource and can be used to represent the content of the resource to a human. The narrative need not encode all the structured data, but is required to contain sufficient detail to make it "clinically safe" for a human to just read the narrative. Resource definitions may define what content should be represented in the narrative to ensure clinical safety.- Overrides:
- textin class- DomainResource.Builder
- Parameters:
- text- Text summary of the resource, for human interpretation
- Returns:
- A reference to this Builder instance
 
 - 
containedpublic Linkage.Builder contained(Resource... contained) These resources do not have an independent existence apart from the resource that contains them - they cannot be identified independently, and nor can they have their own independent transaction scope.Adds new element(s) to the existing list. If any of the elements are null, calling build()will fail.- Overrides:
- containedin class- DomainResource.Builder
- Parameters:
- contained- Contained, inline Resources
- Returns:
- A reference to this Builder instance
 
 - 
containedpublic Linkage.Builder contained(java.util.Collection<Resource> contained) These resources do not have an independent existence apart from the resource that contains them - they cannot be identified independently, and nor can they have their own independent transaction scope.Replaces the existing list with a new one containing elements from the Collection. If any of the elements are null, calling build()will fail.- Overrides:
- containedin class- DomainResource.Builder
- Parameters:
- contained- Contained, inline Resources
- Returns:
- A reference to this Builder instance
- Throws:
- java.lang.NullPointerException- If the passed collection is null
 
 - 
extensionpublic Linkage.Builder extension(Extension... extension) May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the resource. To make the use of extensions safe and manageable, there is a strict set of governance applied to the definition and use of extensions. Though any implementer can define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension.Adds new element(s) to the existing list. If any of the elements are null, calling build()will fail.- Overrides:
- extensionin class- DomainResource.Builder
- Parameters:
- extension- Additional content defined by implementations
- Returns:
- A reference to this Builder instance
 
 - 
extensionpublic Linkage.Builder extension(java.util.Collection<Extension> extension) May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the resource. To make the use of extensions safe and manageable, there is a strict set of governance applied to the definition and use of extensions. Though any implementer can define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension.Replaces the existing list with a new one containing elements from the Collection. If any of the elements are null, calling build()will fail.- Overrides:
- extensionin class- DomainResource.Builder
- Parameters:
- extension- Additional content defined by implementations
- Returns:
- A reference to this Builder instance
- Throws:
- java.lang.NullPointerException- If the passed collection is null
 
 - 
modifierExtensionpublic Linkage.Builder modifierExtension(Extension... modifierExtension) May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the resource and that modifies the understanding of the element that contains it and/or the understanding of the containing element's descendants. Usually modifier elements provide negation or qualification. To make the use of extensions safe and manageable, there is a strict set of governance applied to the definition and use of extensions. Though any implementer is allowed to define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension. Applications processing a resource are required to check for modifier extensions.Modifier extensions SHALL NOT change the meaning of any elements on Resource or DomainResource (including cannot change the meaning of modifierExtension itself). Adds new element(s) to the existing list. If any of the elements are null, calling build()will fail.- Overrides:
- modifierExtensionin class- DomainResource.Builder
- Parameters:
- modifierExtension- Extensions that cannot be ignored
- Returns:
- A reference to this Builder instance
 
 - 
modifierExtensionpublic Linkage.Builder modifierExtension(java.util.Collection<Extension> modifierExtension) May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the resource and that modifies the understanding of the element that contains it and/or the understanding of the containing element's descendants. Usually modifier elements provide negation or qualification. To make the use of extensions safe and manageable, there is a strict set of governance applied to the definition and use of extensions. Though any implementer is allowed to define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension. Applications processing a resource are required to check for modifier extensions.Modifier extensions SHALL NOT change the meaning of any elements on Resource or DomainResource (including cannot change the meaning of modifierExtension itself). Replaces the existing list with a new one containing elements from the Collection. If any of the elements are null, calling build()will fail.- Overrides:
- modifierExtensionin class- DomainResource.Builder
- Parameters:
- modifierExtension- Extensions that cannot be ignored
- Returns:
- A reference to this Builder instance
- Throws:
- java.lang.NullPointerException- If the passed collection is null
 
 -

 - 
itempublic Linkage.Builder item(Linkage.Item... item) Identifies which record considered as the reference to the same real-world occurrence as well as how the items should be evaluated within the collection of linked items.Adds new element(s) to the existing list.

- item- Item to be linked
- Returns:
- A reference to this Builder instance
