Element Details
-
id
An optional identifier for the constraint, which must be unique to only this constraint.- Returns:
- the identifier if provided or an empty string otherwise
- Default:
- ""
-
formalName
An optional formal name for the constraint.- Returns:
- the formal name if provided or an empty string otherwise
- Default:
- ""
-
description
An optional description of the constraint.- Returns:
- the description if provided or an empty string otherwise
- Default:
- ""
-
level
The significance of a violation of this constraint.- Returns:
- the level
- Default:
- ERROR
-
target
An optional metapath that points to the target flag or field value that the constraint applies to. If omitted the target will be ".", which means the target is the value of theBoundFlag
,BoundField
orBoundFieldValue
annotation the constraint appears on. In the prior case, this annotation may only appear on aBoundField
if the field has no flags, which results in aBoundField
annotation on a field instance with a scalar, data type value.- Returns:
- the target metapath
- Default:
- "."
-
properties
An optional set of properties associated with these allowed values.- Returns:
- the properties or an empty array with no properties
- Default:
- {}
-
minOccurs
int minOccursThe minimum occurrence of the target. This value cannot be less than or equal to the corresponding value defined on the target. The value must be greater than0
.- Returns:
- a non-negative integer or
-1
if not defined
- Default:
- -1
-
maxOccurs
int maxOccursThe maximum occurrence of the target. This value must be greater than or equal to theminOccurs()
if both are provided. This value must be less than the corresponding value defined on the target.- Returns:
- a non-negative integer or
-1
if not defined
- Default:
- -1
-
message
The message to emit when the constraint is violated.- Returns:
- the message or an empty string otherwise
- Default:
- ""
-
remarks
Any remarks about the constraint, encoded as an escaped Markdown string.- Returns:
- an encoded markdown string or an empty string if no remarks are provided
- Default:
- ""
