Hi All, an way to restrict max length of string data type using shorthand

If you are looking to restrict the max length of a specific string value, say Patient.name.family, that seems like a good use for the maxLength property. In FSH, you would set that by doing:

* Patient.name.family ^maxLength = 32

to indicate that Patient.name.family should be at most 32 characters.
