Topic: Resolution of relative references when the baseURL is a UUID
Lloyd McKenzie (Oct 31 2019 at 16:18):
The spec currently says else no resolution is possible and the reference has no defined meaning within this specification. However, the tooling does perform resolution. Specifically, if you have a resource in a Bundle with fullUrl of urn:uuid:someguid1 and have a reference to Patient/someguid2, the tooling resolves that to the resource entry with fullURL of urn:uuid:someguid2.
In other words, resolution obviously is possible, so I'm not clear why the spec is stating that it's not possible and has no meaning. Is there a reason why the specification doesn't reflect what the validator and publishing tooling currently do?
