Package de.isas.mztab2.validation

Class CvMappingValidator

java.lang.Object

de.isas.mztab2.validation.CvMappingValidator

All Implemented Interfaces:

Validator<MzTab>

public class CvMappingValidator
extends Object
implements Validator<MzTab>

Validator implementation that uses a provided xml mapping file with rules for required, recommended and optional CV parameters to assert that an mzTab follows these rules. First, all preValidators are run, then, the cv parameter validation is executed, before finally, the postValidators are run. Each validator can add validation messages to the output.
