Interface ConstraintResolver<T extends Constrainable>

Type Parameters:

T - constrainable type

All Known Implementing Classes:

CaseConstraintResolver, DefinitionConstraintResolver, MustOccurConstraintsResolver, PrerequisiteConstraintsResolver, SimpleConstraintResolver, ValidCharactersConstraintResolver

public interface ConstraintResolver<T extends Constrainable>

ConstraintResolver provides a lookup of constraints for a specific constrainable attribute definition

Implemented by constraint providers as a mechanism to store functional lookups in a map, keyed by constraint type, for example.

AttributeDefinitionConstraintProvider for a number of examples.
