      • prevalidate

        public void prevalidate​(ValidationContext vctx)
        Description copied from class: ElementBase
        Prevalidate element information. The prevalidation step is used to check isolated aspects of an element, such as the settings for enumerated values on the element and attributes. This empty base class implementation should be overridden by each subclass that requires prevalidation handling.
        Overrides:
        prevalidate in class StructureElementBase
        Parameters:
        vctx - validation context
      • validate

        public void validate​(ValidationContext vctx)
        Description copied from class: ElementBase
        Validate element information. The validation step is used for checking the interactions between elements, such as name references to other elements. The ElementBase.prevalidate(org.jibx.binding.model.ValidationContext) method will always be called for every element in the binding definition before this method is called for any element. This empty base class implementation should be overridden by each subclass that requires validation handling.
        Overrides:
        validate in class StructureElementBase
        Parameters:
        vctx - validation context
