Class DiagramValidator

java.lang.Object

com.nomagic.magicdraw.validation.DiagramValidator

All Implemented Interfaces:

ValidationRule

Direct Known Subclasses:

OpenedDiagramValidator

@OpenApiAll
public abstract class DiagramValidator
extends java.lang.Object
implements ValidationRule

Rule to validate elements of diagrams by a given scope (all diagrams in project, only active diagrams or diagrams from a specific scope). Rule is triggered after various diagram related events like changes in the owned symbols, switching the active diagram and etc.

Method Detail

init

public void init(Project project,
                 Constraint constraint)

Description copied from interface: ValidationRule

This is the first method that is invoked on the implementation of the ValidationRule interface. Implementation can initialize internal state if required.

Specified by:

init in interface ValidationRule

Parameters:

project - a project of the constraint.

constraint - a constraint object.

needsRun

protected boolean needsRun(java.beans.PropertyChangeEvent event)

Check if validator needs to re-run after given change event occurred.

Parameters:

event - event occurred.

Returns:

true need to validate.

run

public final java.util.Set<Annotation> run(Project project,
                                           Constraint constraint)

Description copied from interface: ValidationRule

Run the validation.

Specified by:

run in interface ValidationRule

Parameters:

project - a project of the constraint.

constraint - a constraint object.

Returns:

set of Annotation objects.

getAnnotations

public abstract java.util.Set<Annotation> getAnnotations(Project project,
                                                         Constraint constraint)

Return Annotation object for each Element or PresentationElement which should be annotated. Only the elements represented in diagrams returned by getDiagrams() method should be analyzed.

Parameters:

project - currently active project

constraint - a validation rule or a legend item. Use this element to construct Annotation objects.

Returns:

annotations targeting elements from the diagrams in scope

needsRun

public boolean needsRun()

Description copied from interface: ValidationRule

Returns whether the validation rule needs to run.

Specified by:

needsRun in interface ValidationRule

Returns:

true if validation rule needs to run, otherwise false.

setNeedsRun

protected void setNeedsRun(boolean run)

Sets flag if this validator has to be re-run, meaning if getAnnotations(Project, Constraint) method should be called again. Actual re-run is done by the validation engine.

Parameters:

run - true to mark validator for rerun

dispose

public void dispose()

Unregisters all listeners that were registered and releases other resources.

Specified by:

dispose in interface ValidationRule

getProject

protected Project getProject()

Get the project.

Returns:

project

getDiagramsStream

protected java.util.stream.Stream<DiagramPresentationElement> getDiagramsStream()

Returns:

Stream of the same diagrams as returned by getDiagrams() method. Convenience method.

getDiagrams

protected java.util.Collection<DiagramPresentationElement> getDiagrams()

Returns:

collection of diagrams for which used elements annotations should be calculated in getAnnotations(Project, Constraint) method.

acceptDiagram

protected boolean acceptDiagram(DiagramPresentationElement diagram)

Returns:

true if the diagram in scope should be returned by getDiagrams() method

getPresentationElements

protected java.util.List<PresentationElement> getPresentationElements(Element element)

Parameters:

element - element to get presentation elements for

Returns:

presentation elements of the given element from all diagrams that are currently in scope

setScopeProvider

void setScopeProvider(com.nomagic.magicdraw.validation.ScopeProvider scopeProvider)

isElementInScope

public boolean isElementInScope(Element element)

If DiagramValidator is to be used in passive validation, then model part to validate can be selected. So certain elements used in the diagram should be validated (they are in selected model scope) and certain should be ignored. Only annotate the element or it's symbol if the element is in scope. Recommendation is to call this method for failing elements only as the last check, since many calls to this method might affect performance in certain scenarios

Parameters:

element - element which is used in any of the diagrams in scope

Returns:

true if the element is in the model scope for the current validation
