Syntax
public class ManifestRule
Remarks

The validation manifest is the model by which validators are described, including how they should validate objects and values.

The validation manifest objects are not particularly suited to serialization, as they support the use of types that cannot be easily serialized. If you are looking for a way to create/define a validator using serialized data then please read the article Using the Manifest Model.
