Validation

TIBCO Business Studio validates the information that you provide when you create and configure composite elements. Validation occurs while you create objects and enter values in wizards and property sheets.

When a validation rule is violated TIBCO Business Studio can issue a warning or an error. When possible, TIBCO Business Studio provides quick fixes that suggest one or more ways to resolve the error.

Warnings identify invalid information but usually do not imply that future actions on the component are restricted. In contrast, errors may restrict future actions on the component. For example, a service assembly flagged with an error may not be deployable.

When TIBCO Business Studio issues a warning or error, one of the following may occur:

  • The composite element that violates a validation rule and every container (composite, SOA project) containing that element and is marked with an error badge "

  • Properties view - The property containing the error is marked with an error badge:

  • Problems view - A warning or error is added to the Problems tab:

  • Wizard - Either the Next button continues to be disabled or the wizard displays a popup describing the error. For example:
