Adding Web Service Sub Class Handler

Sub Class Handler provides you the facility to add different child classes of single resource while handling all the complex work behind. You only need to provide annotation @SubClassHandler. For example, Order class has two child classes DrugOrder and TestOrder, but there is only one single @Resource class of OrderResource. The child classes have their @subclasshandler classes instead of separate resource.

In Order model, Rest Module has only used single @Resource for parent only. The child classes have only

/**

Resource for
Unknown macro: {@link Order}
and all of its subclasses
*/
@Resource(name = RestConstants.VERSION_1 + "/order", supportedClass = Order.class, supportedOpenmrsVersions =
Unknown macro: { "1.8.*", "1.9.*" }
, order = 1)
public class OrderResource1_8 extends DataDelegatingCrudResource<Order> {

}

The Child classes of Order have annotated @SubClassHandler , extends BaseDelegatingSubclassHandler<parent, child> and implements DelegatingSubclassHandler<parent,child> .

@SubClassHandler(supportedClass = DrugOrder.class, supportedOpenmrsVersions =

Unknown macro: { "1.8.*", "1.9.*" }

)
public class DrugOrderSubclassHandler1_8 extends BaseDelegatingSubclassHandler<Order, DrugOrder> implements DelegatingSubclassHandler<Order, DrugOrder> {

public DrugOrderSubclassHandler1_8()

Unknown macro: { //RESTWS-439 //Order subclass fields allowedMissingProperties.add("dose"); allowedMissingProperties.add("units"); allowedMissingProperties.add("frequency"); allowedMissingProperties.add("prn"); allowedMissingProperties.add("complex"); allowedMissingProperties.add("quantity"); allowedMissingProperties.add("drug"); }

}

This has resolved all the type and heritage issues and rest module take controls of all the rest.
