fhir_resource_serialized-class {fhircrackr}

An S4 class to represent a FHIR resource in serialized form

Description

A fhir_resource_serialized is a fhir_resource_xml that has been serialized using fhir_serialize(). In this form, the resource cannot be used in any meaningful way, but it can be saved and loaded as an .RData or .rds object without breaking the external pointers in the xml. See ?fhir_serialize and ?fhir_unserialize.
