Configuring HL7 Comm

The logic for configuring the HL7 Comm took a step backwards, in my opinion in version 0.7, so in version 0.8 I hope to have rectified that by making configuration both more general and simpler, especially in the most complex of cases. Hopefully the actual interface is easier to understand than that first sentence was.

From the main window of HL7 Comm you can select to either load an existing configuration or to load the configuration screen. The configuration screen gives you the ability to load, save and modify configurations (including the running configuration). Additionally, it contains a number of common templates to start your own configuration. These include the Simple Receiver, Simple Sender and othe configurations that were separate from the main configuration in the past. It is recommended that you save common configurations to load later, as it's very slightly more complex to create the simple sender/receiver configurations than it was in the past. With overwhelming demand that feature can return, but it was a bit of a hack to begin with.

Each of the sample configurations includes a description of what the configuration hopes to accomplish, so please take a look through the sample configurations to view what's possible, and read the overview if you wish some more explanation on what is going on there.
