Description copied from interface: SourceValidity

Check if the component is still valid. The possible results are :

• -1: invalid. The component isn't valid anymore.
• 0: don't know. This validity should be checked against a new validity object using SourceValidity.isValid(SourceValidity).
• 1: valid. The component is still valid.

Specified by:

isValid in interface SourceValidity

isValid

public int isValid(SourceValidity newValidity)

Description copied from interface: SourceValidity

Check if the component is still valid. This is only true if the incoming Validity is of the same type and has the "same" values.

The invocation order is that the isValid method of the old Validity object is called with the new one as a parameter.

Specified by:

isValid in interface SourceValidity

Returns:

-1 is returned, if the validity object is not valid anymore +1 is returned, if the validity object is still valid 0 is returned, if the validity check could not be performed. In this case, the new validity object is not usable. Examples for this are: when the validity objects have different types, or when one validity object for any reason is not able to get the required information.
