[Gnumed-devel] GNumed 3rd party connectivity

[Sebastian Hilbert]

Hi,

just short of the new release 0.2.4 GNUmed has seen a massive debugging and 
testing session. Karsten and I have worked 20 hours or so straight to fix the 
bugs that come up. Some of them being old but just surface when you actually 
use GNUmed. Anyway. GNUmed now has a somewhat debugged slave mode for third 
party applications that commicate via xml-files, sort of.

We have a German practice management software that export a patients name and 
stuff into a file which GNUmed can read, open, enter if missing and raise a 
particular plugin.

That way the Windows legacy app tells a running GNUmed instance to open 
patient Jane Doe and raise the document scan/input plugin or the viewer 
plugin. Now how cool is that.

BTW if you have other apps that export patient data you can tell us about the 
format or create the so called xDT file yourself. It's just plain text with 
bunch of numbers before the content string.

Anyway take a look here (It's german but has pictures) to get an idea of how 
we interact.

@ AU-team How are those GUI/GNUmed rewrite efforts coming along. Anything we 
can borrow from your code ? Hope you guys succeed in producing a AU tailored, 
cleanly written and still maintainable solution.

@ Jim How is real life with OSCAR ? Working ok for you ? I am always 
interested in success stories. That's why I started the section in our Wiki

@ Syan. I remember you talaking about importing huge number of patients into 
GNUmed and doing some research on the data. Are you willing to share your use 
of GNUmed if any.
