```

### writeElements

for internal use only

-   `elements`  

### writeComponent

for internal use only

#### Parameters

-   `component`

for internal use only

#### Parameters

-   `str`  

### compact

-   `component` **int** the number of the compenent of the element or undefined if all components must be returned

## Message

Message
The super class for all message interpreters.

Implement the mechanism of message interpretation but does noting in itself
since it has no implementation of any segment

### Parameters

-   `encoding`  
-   `segments`  
-   `elements`  

### reset

reset is called at the beginning of interpret and must clear all previous data.

should be overwritten by the class that extends Message

### interpret

Interpret an EDIFACT Messaage by calling methods for each segment

Errors will be reported by exceptions

#### Parameters

-   `edifact` **[string][37]** the edifact string

### expect

throw an error if variable has not an expected value

variable = the variable to check
values an expected value or an array of expected value. if undefined, doesn't check, just print the message

returns variable if everything ok

#### Parameters

-   `variable`  
-   `values`  
-   `message`  

### expectVal

check that a given component has a given value or is in a given set of values

#### Parameters

-   `elementNumber` **any** of the current segment
-   `componentNumber` **any** in the element
-   `values` **any** either a string or an array of string

### setProp

set a property if the given element / component is defined

#### Parameters

-   `obj` **[object][38]** the object to set a property
-   `property` **[string][37]** the property name
-   `elementNumber` **[number][39]** the element number of the current segment
-   `componentNumber` **[number][39]** the number of the component to look for.
                                    if undefined, the array of components is put into the propertyif either the element or element.component of the \_currentSegment is undefined, nothing is done

### openSegment

understand the previous segment and open a new one in order to collect elements

#### Parameters

-   `segment` **any** name of the segment

## Order16033

**Extends Message**

Order16033
 a parser for ORDERS according to ISO16033

### reset

reset must be call before interpreting a new message.
