Class Validation

java.lang.Object
  extended by net.sf.saxon.lib.Validation

public final class Validation
extends Object

This class contains constants and static methods to manipulate the validation property of a type.


Field Summary
static int BY_TYPE
          Code indicating that validation against a named type was requested
static int DEFAULT
          Code indicating that no specific validation options were requested
static int INVALID
          Code indicating that the value of a validation request was invalid
static int LAX
          Code for lax validation
static int PRESERVE
          Code corresponding to the XSLT option validation=preserve, which indicates that existing type annotations are to be preserved but no new validation is performed.
static int SKIP
          Synonym for STRIP, corresponding to XQuery usage
static int STRICT
          Code for strict validation
static int STRIP
          Code corresponding to the XSLT option validation=strip, which indicates that existing type annotations are to be removed and no new validation is performed.
static int VALIDATE_OUTPUT
          Bit setting that can be combined with a validation code to indicate that the data being validated is final output data, and that validation errors are therefore recoverable.
static int VALIDATION_MODE_MASK
          Mask used when a validation code is combined with other information in an integer value
 
Method Summary
static int getCode(String value)
          Get the integer validation code corresponding to a given string
static String toString(int value)
          Get a string representation of a validation code

Method Detail

getCode

public static int getCode(String value)
Get the integer validation code corresponding to a given string

Parameters:
value - one of "strict", "lax", "preserve", or "strip"
