Topic: Trailing slashes in code system URLs?
Paul Lynch (Feb 20 2019 at 23:20):
According to the FHIR UCUM page, the correct system URL for UCUM is "http://unitsofmeasure.org", but this sample observation on the SMART sandbox is using "http://unitsofmeasure.org/", with a trailing slash, which means that a string comparison fails to match. Is that an error? If so, are systems expected to be forgiving about trailing slashes?
Grahame Grieve (Feb 20 2019 at 23:23):
then the sample is wrong. But it might be graceful on the postel principle to be forgiving about trailing slashes
