Method Detail

validate

void validate()
              throws InvalidPropertyException

This method may be called by a deployment tool to validate the overall activation configuration information provided by the endpoint deployer. This helps to catch activation configuration errors earlier on without having to wait until endpoint activation time for configuration validation. The implementation of this self-validation check behavior is optional.

Throws:

InvalidPropertyException - indicates invalid configuration property settings.
