The archetypical “Hello World” solution in the HL7 v2 messaging world will consist of a HL7 v2 message receiver which writes the messages it receives to files in the file system.

This article works through the mechanics of configuring the “SOA Suite for healthcare integration” to receive HL7 v2.3.1 ADT messages as a Canonical Messages and configuring the SOA Suite to write each message to a file in the file system.

This article assumes that the reader is sufficiently familiar with HL7 v2 and HL7 v2 messaging to require no elaboration on the message structures, message acknowledgement processing and the “equivalence” of HL7 v2 delimited and HL7 v2 XML message forms.
