Interface IWorkflowBeanValidator

All Known Implementing Classes:
WorkflowBeanValidator

public interface IWorkflowBeanValidator
Interface for the bean validator that can be accessed during validation via IWorkflowLocalHandlerValidationContext.getBeanValidator(). Grants access to the Validator, and contains a few utility methods for performing a validation with that validator.

This bean validator ensures that the appropriate resource bundle as indicated by IElementHandler.getResourceBundle(java.util.Locale) is available during the call to IElementHandler.validateLocal(de.xima.fc.interfaces.workflow.params.IElementLocalValidationParams).

  • Method Details

    • findAllValidationGroups

      Class<?>[] findAllValidationGroups(Class<?> beanClass) throws WorkflowValidationException
      Finds all validation groups defined on any property, method, or constructor of the given bean class. Walks the entire object graph, i.e. also finds validation groups on referenced elements.
      Parameters:
      beanClass - Bean class to analyze.
      Returns:
      All validation groups of the given bean class.
      Throws:
      WorkflowValidationException - When the class could not be analyzed.
    • getBeanValidator

      javax.validation.Validator getBeanValidator()
      Returns:
      A bean validator instance that may be used to validate workflow elements. Usually you should just use validateModel(Object, Class...).
    • interpolateMessage

      String interpolateMessage(javax.validation.ConstraintViolation<?> violation)
      Given a constraint violation, creates the localized message for that constraint. Uses the localized message of the constraint, and adds the label for the property from the current resource bundle. Usually you should just use validateModel(Object, Class...).
      Parameters:
      violation - Violation for which to create the localized validation message.
      Returns:
      The localized validation message.
    • validateModel

      IWorkflowElementValidationResult validateModel(Object workflowElement, Class<?>... groups) throws WorkflowValidationException
      Uses the getBeanValidator() to perform a validation of bean instance, usually the properties model of a workflow node or trigger.
      Parameters:
      workflowElement - The bean instance to validate, must not be null
      groups - A list of validation groups to validate, see the second argument of Validator.validate(Object, Class...).
      Returns:
      The validation result with all error and warning messages.
      Throws:
      WorkflowValidationException - When an error occurred during validation; or when the given model is null.
