Class DatabaseLengthValidation

java.lang.Object

org.faktorips.runtime.validation.DatabaseLengthValidation

public final class DatabaseLengthValidation
extends Object

Utility class for length validation.

This class performs a generic validation of String lengths, and precision (and scale) for numeric values based on the limits specified. It does not validate against any constraints that may be defined via JPA annotations.

Since:

25.7

See Also:

• IDatabaseLengthValidationConfiguration for configuration of the validation
• DefaultDatabaseLengthValidationConfiguration for a default configuration implementation

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description

MessageList	validateWithChildren(IModelObject modelObject)	Validates that all string attributes in the model object and all its child objects do not exceed the specified maximum byte length, and all numeric attributes in the model object do not exceed the given precision and scale.

validateWithChildren

public MessageList validateWithChildren(IModelObject modelObject)

Validates that all string attributes in the model object and all its child objects do not exceed the specified maximum byte length, and all numeric attributes in the model object do not exceed the given precision and scale.

Parameters:

modelObject - the model object to validate

Returns:

a list of validation messages, empty if no attribute exceeds its constraints

See Also:

• validateOnly(IModelObject) for validation of a single model object

validateOnly

public MessageList validateOnly(IModelObject modelObject)

Validates that all string attributes in the model object do not exceed the specified maximum byte length, and all numeric attributes in the model object do not exceed the given precision and scale.

Parameters:

modelObject - the model object to validate

Returns:

a list of validation messages, empty if no attribute exceeds its constraints

• validateWithChildren(IModelObject) for recursive validation of a model object tree
