This feature is a mini-programming environment for developing custom functions. Custom functions can be used to generate a CSV file of patient attributes matching some complex criteria, file data into a database, analyze complex message exchanges, or any task that isn't directly supported by HL7Spy.

Hello World!

When showing how to use a programming language/tool it is customary to print "Hello World!" since it is usually the simplest starting point. In HL7Spy we will set MSH-3 to "Hello World!" to keep with this tradition.

  public override void Run()
  {
    // Get an HL7 Message in parsed format
    HL7Message message = GetParsedMessage();
    // Set MSH-3 to "Hello World!"
    message["MSH-3"] = "Hello World";
    // Same thing, but using a different syntax
    message.MSH.SendingApplication_03.NamespaceID_01.Value = "Hello World!";
    // Save the altered message into a new tab
    SaveMessage(message,"Hello World Tab");
  }

The result if you press the Run button is that a new Tab will be generated and every message will have a value of "Hello World!" in MSH-3.
