Method Detail

• validateRoot

  public boolean validateRoot(java.lang.Object rootObject)
                       throws JAXBException

  Validate a root object against a schema.

  validateRoot in interface Validator

  Parameters:

  rootObject - - the root object to be validated

  Returns:

  true if a valid root object, false otherwise

  Throws:

  JAXBException

  ValidationException - If the ValidationEventHandler returns false from its handleEvent method or the Validator is unable to validate the content tree rooted at rootObj

• validate

  public boolean validate(java.lang.Object object)
                   throws JAXBException

  Validate a non-root object against a schema.

  Specified by:

  validate in interface Validator

  Parameters:

  object - - the object to be validated

  Returns:

  true if a valid object, false otherwise

  Throws:

  JAXBException

  ValidationException - If the ValidationEventHandler returns false from its handleEvent method or the Validator is unable to validate the content tree rooted at subrootObj

• setEventHandler

  public void setEventHandler(ValidationEventHandler newValidationEventHandler)
                       throws JAXBException

  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.

  Calling this method with a null parameter will cause the Validator to revert back to the default default event handler.

  Specified by:

  setEventHandler in interface Validator

  Parameters:

  newValidationEventHandler - the validation event handler

  Throws:

  JAXBException - if an error was encountered while setting the event handler

• getEventHandler

  public ValidationEventHandler getEventHandler()
                                         throws JAXBException

  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

  Throws:

  JAXBException - if an error was encountered while getting the current event handler
