When HAPI returns the bundle of generated profiles, the entry ids won't work to retrieve the individual profiles. about hapi-fhir HOT 2 CLOSED

I'm leaving this open for now, to track the fix we discussed on skype:

[2014-10-28, 10:52:29 AM] Bill de Beaubien: normally you'd say something like profile="http://myfhirserver.profile.net/fhir/Profile/Observation" or something
[2014-10-28, 10:52:44 AM] Bill de Beaubien: but what if i want to say "my profile lives at the same url as the place you got the observation from"
[2014-10-28, 10:54:04 AM] Bill de Beaubien: maybe if i just specified "Profile/Observation" it could infer the url
[2014-10-28, 10:54:07 AM] James Agnew: this whole thing is confusing i’d agree, and could stand to be cleaned up… the root of the problem is that for now, a profile’s URL is dependent on where the server gets hosted. So like if you define a custom type as a profile, that profile would have a different URL on each server you deploy it to
[2014-10-28, 10:54:34 AM] Bill de Beaubien: if i don't specify the profile tag and "it just works" i'm fine with that :)
[2014-10-28, 10:55:26 AM] James Agnew: yeah, it occured to me that really, @ResourceDef should probably only allow you to specify either profile=“http://whatever” or id=“foo”
[2014-10-28, 10:56:00 AM] James Agnew: So, if you’re consuming someone else’s profile and have generated a class to model it (i.e. the profile is hosted elsewhere), you put the full URL in “profile=“
[2014-10-28, 10:56:35 AM] James Agnew: If you’re the one who defined the profile (and you want it hosted and served from your own server) you just put an ID and the server turns that into a URL at runtimne
[2014-10-28, 10:57:07 AM] James Agnew: For option A, profile searches to your local server don’t return it.. but for option B they do
[2014-10-28, 10:57:14 AM] James Agnew: Does that make sense?
