Installation

The installation of all HL7 applications, and the preparation of the underlying operating environment is documented by the Tooling Committee in Installing and Configuring HL7 Tools.

Go to Vocabulary Tool installation instructions to find the installer and begin the installation

This section of the application manual simply points out the steps and then links to the relevant sections of Installing and Configuring HL7 Tools.

Install Java Runtime

The Harmonization Editor is a Java-based tool that executes in the Eclipse platform. However, the Eclipse platform does not need to be installed as the Harmonization Editor installer installs a "runtime" version of the platform.

To find and install the latest Java runtime environment (JRE) see the installation instructions in the reference file.

Install Application

The basic installation instructions are found in the installation resource file, but that file does not show the selection screens that appear as the installation proceeds. Omce the user 'double-clicks the self-installing JAR file, the installation dialog windows appear in the following sequence. The captions identify the screen shot, and some figueres have textual comments below them.

Uninstall Application

Because this application is installed with a Java JAR-self-installer, it does not appear in the Windows "Add/Remove Programs" control panel. There is however an uninstall routine that is installed along with the application. It can be activated from the Start Programs menu as shown in the following figure:

Uninstaller "Start Programs" selection

Selecting the Uninstall HL7 Harmonization Editor option will launch the install process with the following screen:

Uninstaller Verification dialog

The only selection other than Uninstall or Quit is whether to select the option Force the deletion of <<installation directory>>. The results of this option are:

  • Not selected - The application will be removed, but data content, such as proposal files, that are stored under the installation directory will be retained.
  • Selected - The application will be removed, and all files under the installation directory will be removed whether or not they were part of the original installation.

Selecting Uninstall converts this pane into a progress bar that continues until the removal is complete, and only the Quit remains, as below:
