Description Sissi Zhu CLA 2009-03-11 22:54:36 EDT 
It's an enhancement. Suggest to add validation function for parameter group, user could validate the parameters in one parameter group, that's a very common use case. Now we only support validation for one parameter.

build version:2.5.0.v20090311-0630

Do we have any issue to add validate() methods in ParameterGroup? CascadingParameterGroup is a sub-class of ParameterGroup.
Comment 2 Wei Yan CLA 2009-03-12 00:57:24 EDT 
can the user validate multiple parameters in the validation of last parameter?

If so, should we still need to implement this enhancement?

It seems that add validation of the last parameter works. But user don't know the trick.

If this works out, don't need to add validation in parameter group. Otherwise, it needs changes in all Model, UI and Engine sides.
