MetadataInterface
interface MetadataInterface implements MetadataInterface
A container for validation metadata.
Most importantly, the metadata stores the constraints against which an object and its properties should be validated.
Additionally, the metadata stores whether objects should be validated against their class' metadata and whether traversable objects should be traversed or not.

Details
accept(ValidationVisitorInterface $visitor, mixed $value, string|string[] $group, string $propertyPath) deprecated
deprecated
Implementation of the Visitor design pattern.
Calls {@link ValidationVisitorInterface::visit} and then forwards the accept()-call to all property metadata instances.
Parameters
| ValidationVisitorInterface | $visitor | The visitor implementing the validation logic |
| mixed | $value | The value to validate |
| string|string[] | $group | The validation group to validate in |
| string | $propertyPath | The current property path in the validation graph |
Constraint[] findConstraints(string $group)
Returns all constraints for a given validation group.
Parameters
| string | $group | The validation group |
Return Value
| Constraint[] | A list of constraint instances |
int getCascadingStrategy()
Returns the strategy for cascading objects.
Return Value
| int | The cascading strategy |

| CascadingStrategy |
int getTraversalStrategy()
Returns the strategy for traversing traversable objects.
Return Value
| int | The traversal strategy |
See also
| TraversalStrategy |
Constraint[] getConstraints()
Returns all constraints of this element.
Return Value
| Constraint[] | A list of Constraint instances |
