Syntax

public abstract class RuleIdentifierBase

Constructors

RuleIdentifierBase(Type, Type, String)

Initializes a new instance of RuleIdentifierBase.

Declaration

protected RuleIdentifierBase(Type ruleType, Type validatedType, string ruleName = null)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
System.Type	ruleType	The rule type.
System.Type	validatedType	The type of value that the rule validates.
System.String	ruleName	An optional rule name.

Properties

RuleName

An optional rule name, to uniquely identify this rule where other identifying information might be ambiguous.

Declaration

public string RuleName { get; }

Property Value

Type	Description
System.String

Remarks

Any rule may have a name, whether it needs one or not. Rules only require a name when the other identifying information would not uniquely identify the rule. That being:

• The rule type: RuleType
• The object identifier (where applicable)
• The member name which provides the value being validated (where applicable)

In these cases where the three pieces of information above are insufficient to uniquely identify a rule, then the rule must be named in order for its identity to be unambiguous. This is most common when the same rule type is applied more than once to the same validated value (but each time with different configuration).

RuleType

The type of the validation rule logic class.

Declaration

public Type RuleType { get; }

Property Value

Type	Description
System.Type

ValidatedType

Gets the System.Type of value that the rule validates.

Declaration

public Type ValidatedType { get; }

Property Value

Type	Description
System.Type
