Method Detail

setEventHandler

public void setEventHandler(ValidationEventHandler pHandler)

Description copied from interface: Validator

Allow an application to register a validation event handler.

The validation event handler will be called by the JAXB Provider if any validation errors are encountered during calls to validate. If the client application does not register a validation event handler before invoking the validate method, then validation events will be handled by the default event handler which will terminate the validate operation after the first error or fatal error is encountered.

Specified by:

setEventHandler in interface Validator

Parameters:

pHandler - the validation event handler

getEventHandler

public ValidationEventHandler getEventHandler()

Description copied from interface: Validator

Return the current event handler or the default event handler if one hasn't been set.

Specified by:

getEventHandler in interface Validator

Returns:

the current ValidationEventHandler or the default event handler if it hasn't been set

validate

public boolean validate(java.lang.Object pObject)

Description copied from interface: Validator

Validate the Java content tree starting at subrootObj.

Client applications can use this method to validate Java content trees on-demand at runtime. This method can be used to validate any arbitrary subtree of the Java content tree. Global constraint checking will not be performed as part of this operation (i.e. ID/IDREF constraints).

TODO: what happens if the client passes a random java.lang.Object into this method? Throw a runtime exception?

Specified by:

validate in interface Validator

Parameters:

pObject - the obj to begin validation at

Returns:

true if the subtree rooted at subrootObj is valid, false otherwise

validateRoot

public boolean validateRoot(java.lang.Object pObject)

Description copied from interface: Validator

Validate the Java content tree rooted at rootObj.

Client applications can use this method to validate Java content trees on-demand at runtime. This method is used to validate an entire Java content tree. Global constraint checking will be performed as part of this operation (i.e. ID/IDREF constraints).

TODO: what happens if the client passes a random java.lang.Object into this method? Throw a runtime exception?

Specified by:

validateRoot in interface Validator

Parameters:

pObject - the root obj to begin validation at

Returns:

true if the tree rooted at rootObj is valid, false otherwise
