/**
|
|
* A container for validation metadata.
|
|
*
|
|
* The container contains constraints that may belong to different validation
|
|
* groups. Constraints for a specific group can be fetched by calling
|
|
* {@link findConstraints}.
|
|
*
|
|
* Implement this interface to add validation metadata to your own metadata
|
|
* layer. Each metadata may have named properties. Each property can be
|
|
* represented by one or more {@link PropertyMetadataInterface} instances that
|
|
* are returned by {@link getPropertyMetadata}. Since
|
|
* <tt>PropertyMetadataInterface</tt> inherits from <tt>MetadataInterface</tt>,
|
|
* each property may be divided into further properties.
|
|
*
|
|
* The {@link accept} method of each metadata implements the Visitor pattern.
|
|
* The method should forward the call to the visitor's
|
|
* {@link ValidationVisitorInterface::visit} method and additionally call
|
|
* <tt>accept()</tt> on all structurally related metadata instances.
|
|
*
|
|
* For example, to store constraints for PHP classes and their properties,
|
|
* create a class <tt>ClassMetadata</tt> (implementing <tt>MetadataInterface</tt>)
|
|
* and a class <tt>PropertyMetadata</tt> (implementing <tt>PropertyMetadataInterface</tt>).
|
|
* <tt>ClassMetadata::getPropertyMetadata($property)</tt> returns all
|
|
* <tt>PropertyMetadata</tt> instances for a property of that class. Its
|
|
* <tt>accept()</tt>-method simply forwards to <tt>ValidationVisitorInterface::visit()</tt>
|
|
* and calls <tt>accept()</tt> on all contained <tt>PropertyMetadata</tt>
|
|
* instances, which themselves call <tt>ValidationVisitorInterface::visit()</tt>
|
|
* again.
