Enum Constant Summary

Enum Constants
Enum Constant and Description
`COMPOSITE` A composite search parameter that combines a search on two values together.
`DATE` Search parameter is on a date/time.
`NULL` added to help the parsers
`NUMBER` Search parameter SHALL be a number (a whole number, or a decimal).
`QUANTITY` A search parameter that searches on a quantity.
`REFERENCE` A reference to another resource (Reference or canonical).
`SPECIAL` Special logic applies to this parameter per the description of the search parameter.
`STRING` Search parameter is a simple string, like a name part.
`TOKEN` Search parameter on a coded element or identifier.
`URI` A search parameter that searches on a URI (RFC 3986).

- Enum Constant Detail
  - NUMBER
```
public static final SearchParamType NUMBER
```
    Search parameter SHALL be a number (a whole number, or a decimal).
  - DATE
```
public static final SearchParamType DATE
```
    Search parameter is on a date/time. The date format is the standard XML format, though other formats may be supported.
  - STRING
```
public static final SearchParamType STRING
```
    Search parameter is a simple string, like a name part. Search is case-insensitive and accent-insensitive. May match just the start of a string. String parameters may contain spaces.
  - TOKEN
```
public static final SearchParamType TOKEN
```
    Search parameter on a coded element or identifier. May be used to search through the text, display, code and code/codesystem (for codes) and label, system and key (for identifier). Its value is either a string or a pair of namespace and value, separated by a "|", depending on the modifier used.
  - REFERENCE
```
public static final SearchParamType REFERENCE
```
    A reference to another resource (Reference or canonical).
  - COMPOSITE
```
public static final SearchParamType COMPOSITE
```
    A composite search parameter that combines a search on two values together.
  - QUANTITY
```
public static final SearchParamType QUANTITY
```
    A search parameter that searches on a quantity.
  - URI
```
public static final SearchParamType URI
```
    A search parameter that searches on a URI (RFC 3986).
  - SPECIAL
```
public static final SearchParamType SPECIAL
```
    Special logic applies to this parameter per the description of the search parameter.
  - NULL
```
public static final SearchParamType NULL
```
    added to help the parsers
- Method Detail
  - values
```
public static SearchParamType[] values()
```
    Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:
```
for (SearchParamType c : SearchParamType.values())
    System.out.println(c);
```
    Returns:
    
    an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared
  - valueOf
```
public static SearchParamType valueOf(String name)
```
    Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)
    
    Parameters:
    
    name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.
    
    Returns:
    
    the enum constant with the specified name
    
    Throws:
    
    IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
    
    NullPointerException - if the argument is null
  - fromCode
```
public static SearchParamType fromCode(String codeString)
                                throws org.hl7.fhir.exceptions.FHIRException
```
    Throws:
    
    org.hl7.fhir.exceptions.FHIRException
  - toCode
```
public String toCode()
```
  - getSystem
```
public String getSystem()
```
  - getDefinition
```
public String getDefinition()
```
  - getDisplay
```
public String getDisplay()
```
