Class AnnotationValidator

java.lang.Object
  net.sf.basedb.util.overview.validator.BasicNodeValidator<Annotation>
      net.sf.basedb.util.overview.validator.AnnotationValidator

All Implemented Interfaces:

NodeValidator<Annotation>

public class AnnotationValidator
extends BasicNodeValidator<Annotation>

Validator implementation for annotations. The node containing the annotations is expected to live in a folder-type node that has an Annotatable item as it's parent. Validation rules:

• Annotation is a protocol parameter: Validator.ANNOTATION_IS_PARAMETER
• Annotation is not valid for item type: Validator.ANNOTATION_INVALID_ITEM
• Annotation has invalid value: Validator.ANNOTATION_INVALID_VALUE
• Access denied to annotation type: Validator.DENIED_ANNOTATIONTYPE
• Annotation is inherited from non-parent item: Validator.ANNOTATION_INHERIT_FROM_NONPARENT
• Multiple annotations of same annotation type: Validator.ANNOTATION_INHERIT_MULTIPLE
• Missing a 'Required by MIAME' annotation: Validator.MISSING_MIAME_ANNOTATION
• Missing experimental factor value: Validator.MISSING_FACTORVALUE

Method Detail

postValidate

public void postValidate(DbControl dc,
                         OverviewContext context,
                         Node node,
                         Node parentNode)

Description copied from class: BasicNodeValidator

Do nothing. Subclasses should override this method if they need more validation for an existing and accessible item.

Specified by:

postValidate in interface NodeValidator<Annotation>

Overrides:

postValidate in class BasicNodeValidator<Annotation>

Parameters:

dc - A DbControl to use if the validation needs to access the database

context - The current overview context

node - The node object that represents item

parentNode - The parent node that is linked with the item

postValidateFolder

public void postValidateFolder(DbControl dc,
                               OverviewContext context,
                               Node folderNode,
                               Node parentNode)

Description copied from class: BasicNodeValidator

Do nothing. Subclasses should override this method if they need to validate all items inside a folder-type node.

Specified by:

postValidateFolder in interface NodeValidator<Annotation>

Overrides:

postValidateFolder in class BasicNodeValidator<Annotation>

Parameters:

dc - A DbControl to use for database access

context - The current overview context

folderNode - The folder node, or null if no folder has been created

parentNode - The parent node (never null)

getMissingItemFix

protected Fix getMissingItemFix(Node parentNode)

Description copied from class: BasicNodeValidator

Subclasses should override this method if they have a suggessted fix for a missing item problem. The default implementation does nothing, but the following template may be usable by most subclasses:

                new Fix("Add item to parent", parentNode.getItem())
                

Specified by:

getMissingItemFix in class BasicNodeValidator<Annotation>

Returns:

Always "null"
