HL7-dotnetcore：为什么 HL7 消息验证失败并显示错误“消息类型和触发事件值未在消息中找到”？

Question

I am using HL7-dotnetcore package which seems to be really nice. Unfortunately I'm struggling while creating new HL7 message.

I am trying to create new MDM_T02 message as explained in the guide (docs) with following code:

Message mdmMessage = new Message();

mdmMessage.AddSegmentMSH(
    "sendingApplication",
    "sendingFacility",
    "receivingApplication",
    "receivingFacility",
    string.Empty,
    "MDM_T02",
    $"Id{DateTime.Now.Ticks}",
    "P",
    "2.6");

But, I get following exception message:

Failed to validate the message with error - Message Type & Trigger Event value not found in message

The AddSegmentMSH method expects the messageType as a parameter. But I don't know about the trigger event. I think the exception comes from here . Does someone know how to fix it?

Answer 1

The problem is because you are sending messageType as MDM_T02 . This is invalid value. The MDM is message and T02 is an event. Those should be separated by component separator; default CAPS ( ^ ) symbol. Observe that you are separating those with underscore ( _ ) symbol.

Due to this, toolkit is not able to validate your message type. You should change "MDM_T02" to "MDM^T02" .

Refer to following code on github :

var MSH_9_comps = MessageHelper.SplitString(MSH_9, this.Encoding.ComponentDelimiter);

if (MSH_9_comps.Count >= 3)
{
    this.MessageStructure = MSH_9_comps[2];
}
else if (MSH_9_comps.Count > 0 && MSH_9_comps[0] != null && MSH_9_comps[0].Equals("ACK"))
{
    this.MessageStructure = "ACK";
}
else if (MSH_9_comps.Count == 2)
{
    this.MessageStructure = MSH_9_comps[0] + "_" + MSH_9_comps[1];
}
else
{
    throw new HL7Exception("Message Type & Trigger Event value not found in message", HL7Exception.UNSUPPORTED_MESSAGE_TYPE);
}

Observe that the exception being thrown in above code is same that you mentioned in question. Also observe the first line; the SplitString is done on ComponentDelimiter .
