1.5.0 for R4 (released 20200204) - FHIR 4.0.1

Technical Correction for R4

This release implements the Technical Correction (TC) to R4 (version 4.0.1). See hl7.org/fhir for the changes for this version.

Bugfixes

• #943 Update ModelInfo.cs to R4
• #961 Typo in ResolveExteralReferences
• #999 We changed manually the AllowedTypes of SimpleQuantity to Quantity
• #1093 Client does not close connection on time-out bitesize! enhancement
• #1129 Client fails requests when server respond with success codes different than 200 enhancement
• #1134 Add validation to not allow timezones on time and date enhancement
• #1128 FhirPath expression node constructors should call its IEnumerable args only once bug
• #1168 Snapshot generator does not auto-generate referenced snapshots it depends on in 1.4.0
• #1229 Snapshot generator inadvertedly removing base's Slicing.Discriminator
• #1206 FhirClient.SearchUsingPost() using multiple includes throws exception

New Functionality

• #1176 Xml serialization does not trim whitespace bug.
  Whitespace is now trimmed by default during xml serialization. Changing this behavior can be done be setting TrimWhiteSpacesInXml in FhirXmlSerializationSettings to false.

• FhirPath:
  • new function intersect()
  • supporting back tics (`) in identifier
  • new environment variable %rootResource
• internal value of ITypedElement and ISourceNode for the datatypes integer, positiveInt and unsignedInt is now the C# integer instead of long. This is made to make a distinction between the datatype integer and integer64 (introduced in R5).

Note: Active development of DSTU2 has stopped, the included DSTU2 1.5.0 update is there to retain binary compatibility with the newer shared assemblies but has none of the new features.

1.2.1 for STU3 (released 20190416)

The fix for issue #889 should have been in version 1.2.0, but it was not because of a merge error. In this hotfix (1.2.1) we corrected this mistake and added the fix for issue #889.

Bugfixes

• #889 Additional rules will get confused by hybrid typed trees

1.2.0 for STU3 (released 20190329)

New Functionality

Support for R4 final (4.0.0)

• 748 You can now set the ParserSettings used by the DirectorySource
• 756 Type-aware validations can now also be run by the POCO parser
• 924 Performance improvements

Bugfixes

• 907 Transaction code documentation was wrong
• 833 FhirClient.Read would return null when server not responding
• 896 StructureDefinitionElementDefinitionSummaryGenerator would not always derive IsRequired correctly
• 889 Additional rules will get confused by hybrid typed trees
• 888 TypedElementToSourceNodeAdapter should return ISourceNode annotation
• 872 Quantity now binds to <code>, not <unit>

Note: The parsing subsystem now catches way more error in the FHIR xml/json syntax. Since this would raise errors in instances that previously parsed without problems, this feature is turned off by default. Turn it on by setting ParserSettings.PermissiveParsing to “false”.
