ValidationMessageObserver Class

Definition

Namespace:

Microsoft.VisualStudio.Modeling.Validation

Assembly:

Microsoft.VisualStudio.Modeling.Sdk.dll

ValidationMessageObserver reports errors/messages/warnings generated from validation methods. A ValidationMessageObserver is created with a given ValidationController as the ctor parameter. Once all the validation methods have been invoked, the observer picks up the messages being added/removed during the validation process and notify the user (via virturl overridable methods). This class also provides virtual method OnValidationBeginning and OnValidationEnded. This allows the derived class to know when the validation starts and ended.

The method will be called in the following order

1. OnValidationBeginning
2. OnValidationMessagesChanging
3. OnValidationMessageRemoved - called once for each message removed.
4. OnValidationMessageAdded - called once for each message added.
5. OnValidationMessagesChangedSummary
6. OnValidationEnded
