Fhir R5 Generate optional fields in addition to required fields according to a profile

[grahamegrieve]

perhaps you should show your code so we can be clear about what you are doing?

 private IWorkerContext ctxt;
 public void Load() throws IOException {
    if (ctxt == null) {
            ctxt = TestingUtilities.getSharedWorkerContext();
            FilesystemPackageCacheManager pc = new FilesystemPackageCacheManager(true);
            NpmPackage npm = pc.loadPackage("hl7.fhir.us.core", "5.0.0");
            ctxt.loadFromPackage(npm, new 
            TestPackageLoader(Utilities.strings(SimpleWorkerContext.defaultTypesToLoad().stream().toArray(String[]::new))));
            ctxt.cacheResource(new JsonParser().parse(TestingUtilities.loadTestResource("r5", "profiles", "pe-extension-simple.json")));
            ctxt.cacheResource(new JsonParser().parse(TestingUtilities.loadTestResource("r5", "profiles", "pe-extension-complex.json")));
            ctxt.cacheResource(new JsonParser().parse(TestingUtilities.loadTestResource("r5", "profiles", "pe-profile2.json")));
            ctxt.cacheResource(new JsonParser().parse(TestingUtilities.loadTestResource("r5", "profiles", "pe-profile1.json")));
       }
  }

  public void GenerateObservationFromProfile() throws IOException {
         Load();

         String profileURL = "http://hl7.org/fhir/test/StructureDefinition/pe-profile1";
         Observation res = (Observation) new PEBuilder(ctxt, PEBuilder.PEElementPropertiesPolicy.NONE, false).createResource(profileURL, true);

         String json = new JsonParser().setOutputStyle(IParser.OutputStyle.PRETTY).composeString(res);
         System.out.println(json);
 }

Here is an example of the generation. I take the profile definitions from us.core npm package, and the call of GenerateObservationFromProfile() generates the output from above. However, the output only contains fields with cardinality of at least 1, and I would like to generate those with a cardinality of 0..1 or 0..* too.

You didn't provide any values, so how can it generate them?
