Re: [stp-dev] AW: Proposal for a generic validation framework

[Andrei Shakirin <andrei.shakirin@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Florian,

Thanks a lot for your feedback!

Some answers to your questions:
1) -IValidationObjectType: will there be some guidelines how the ID of these
types shall look like?
There are two basic requirements to Validation Object Type IDs:
a) they should be unique in scope of running framework runtime;
b) they should be understandable for corresponded validators and clients (if validator do not know specified Type ID, it just skip the validation of this object and pass it to further validators in chain).

Samples of Type IDs are "ws-policy", "wsdl", "xsd", "bpel"

2) -how shall this validator repository be organized? The
IValidationFactory.getAvailableValidators will probably access that, am I
right?
In our basic implementation validation framework based on OSGi. In this case OSGi Service Registry plays the role of validators repository.
But framework is not restricted by OSGi, it is possible to provide JBI, J2EE, local File System, etc based implementations. Organization of validator repository depends on basic implementation technology (for example it could be JBI Component Framework based, local File System or SQL database based).

Best regards,
Andrei.

Hi Jerry,

thanks for your proposal. Such a validation framework will be quite useful
for other areas than STP as well. At the Java Workflow Toolbox (JWT) project
we are currently planning to develop a validation component for workflows.
In order to generate code from a workflow, to execute it on a process
engine, to document it, etc. it is always necessary to validate it before.
Here, we will base our implementation on your idea of a validation framework
and will keep track of your development.
Concerning the proposed metamodel:
-IValidationObjectType: will there be some guidelines how the ID of these
types shall look like?
-how shall this validator repository be organized? The
IValidationFactory.getAvailableValidators will probably access that, am I
right?

Best regards,

Florian

Hi all,

we've just created a wiki page with a proposal for a generic validation
framework at http://wiki.eclipse.org/STP_Validation_Framework . We believe
that this topic is of interest for quite some people and hope for a lively
discussion. Please take a look and tell us what you think.

Best regards

  Jerry Preissler
