TDS properties for element reference Boolean types

The TDS Format properties described here apply to:

Field identification

Property Type Meaning
Repeating Element Delimiter String Specify the delimiter that is to be used between repeating elements.

This delimiter is used only when the element repeats and the Data Element Separation property of the parent group or complex type is set to All Elements Delimited or Variable Length Elements Delimited.

A default value is provided if the above conditions are true; if the messaging standard is HL7, the mnemonic <HL7_RS> is used; if the messaging standard is not HL7, and the maximum number of repeats is fixed, the delimiter of the parent group or complex type is used.

If none of the above conditions are true, a default is not applied.

Physical representation

Property Type Meaning
Length Reference Enumerated type Specify the identifier of a sibling Integer object, the value of which determines the length of the object in question. The sibling object must be defined before the current object within the message structure.

For information about reordering elements, see Reordering objects.
