Method Detail

Object translateQueryParametersIntoServerArgument(RequestDetails theRequest,
                                                  BaseMethodBinding<?> theMethodBinding)
                                           throws ca.uhn.fhir.rest.server.exceptions.InternalErrorException,

This server method method takes the data received by the server in an incoming request, and translates that data into a single argument for a server method invocation. Note that all received data is passed to this method, but the expectation is that not necessarily that all data is used by every parameter.

Parameters:

theRequest - The incoming request object

theRequestContents - The parsed contents of the incoming request. E.g. if the request was an HTTP POST with a resource in the body, this argument would contain the parsed IResource instance.

theMethodBinding - TODO

Returns:

Returns the argument object as it will be passed to the IResourceProvider method.

Throws:

ca.uhn.fhir.rest.server.exceptions.InternalErrorException

ca.uhn.fhir.rest.server.exceptions.InvalidRequestException
