  • Method Details

    • getDefaults

      @Nullable @Nullable List<Validator> getDefaults()
      These validation rules are added as fallbacks, for the case that there is nothing else defined.

      For example the "string" type may define a max-length of 255, which can be explicitly set to more or less, in which case the setting from here has to be ignored.

    • getConstraints

      @Nullable @Nullable List<Validator> getConstraints()
      These validation rules are enforced no matter what. These define maximum boundaries.

      For example the "byte" type has a max value of 127. Yes, a larger value cannot be stored in a byte data type anyway, but this information is retrieved by other parts of the application, for example the gui, to set boundaries.
