IValidationContext (org.faktorips.runtime 21.6.0-SNAPSHOT API)

All Known Implementing Classes:

ValidationContext
```
public interface IValidationContext
```
A validation context is provided to the validate() method generated by Faktor-IPS. By means of the validation context the caller can provide additional information to the validate method like for example the business context in which the validation is to execute.
