1. Purpose
----------
The EhValidationTool is designed to help people from the medical world in creating valid Sumehr files. It will check the sumehr file against the Kmehr schema and the sumehr business rules as published on the Kmehr website (https://www.ehealth.fgov.be/standards/kmehr/).

2. Using the GUI
----------------
Make sure you've extracted the files and kept the folder structure intact. Double-click on the ehvalidator-gui-XXX.jar file (where XXX is the version number) to launch the Ehealth Validation Tool.
You can click the Browse button to select a file to validate. Two sample files are provided with this distribution.

3. Using the library
--------------------
The EhValidationTool also includes a library that can either be integrated in a java project (see javadoc for details) or used through the command-line. To launch it, go to the lib folder using your favourite command-line interpreter and enter the following command (where XXX is the version number):

	java -jar ehvalidator-core-XXX.jar <FILENAME>

This will produce the standard validation result to screen. You can redirect the output to file, and change the formatting from XML to HTML using command-line arguments. These arguments are described if you launch the tool without arguments :
	java -jar ehvalidator-core-XXX.jar.

Please note that, when run from the command line, the validation output (in HTML or XML format) are redirected to the Standard Output (STDOUT), whereas any error or information messages are redirected to the Standard Error (STDERR). This is useful if you are performing batch processing, because you can be certain that your XML file will either be correct, or empty in case an error occurred.

You could also redirect the output to a file, and the error to another file :
	java -jar ehvalidator-core-XXX.jar -request xmlreport sumehr.xml > result.xml 2> errors.log
If the validation report could be produced, it will be in result.xml, and any error messages can be found in the errors.log file.


4. External libraries
---------------
The EhValidationTool is bundled with the following libraries :
    - dom4j-1.6.1
    - icu4j-2.6.1
    - jaxen-1.1.1
    - jdom-1.0
    - log4j-1.2.13
    - probatron4j-0.7.4
    - xalan-2.6.0
    - xercesImpl-2.6.2
    - xml-apis-1.0.b2
    - xmlParserAPIs-2.6.2
    - xom-1.0

In order to guarantee integrity, eHealth has signed these libraries, so they will not match the md5 identifiers of the files downloaded from the internet. The relevant licenses can be found in the licenses directory. Note that all files from the Apache XML Project fall under the same Apache XML License.
