  1. Drupal Core 11.1.x
  2. ExecutionContextInterface.php

interface ExecutionContextInterface

The context of a validation run.

The context collects all violations generated during the validation. By default, validators execute all validations in a new context:

$violations = $validator->validate($object);

When you make another call to the validator, while the validation is in progress, the violations will be isolated from each other:

public function validate(mixed $value, Constraint $constraint): void { $validator = $this->context->getValidator();

// The violations are not added to $this->context $violations = $validator->validate($value); }

However, if you want to add the violations to the current context, use the {@link ValidatorInterface::inContext()} method:

public function validate(mixed $value, Constraint $constraint): void { $validator = $this->context->getValidator();

// The violations are added to $this->context $validator ->inContext($this->context) ->validate($value) ; }

Additionally, the context provides information about the current state of the validator, such as the currently validated class, the name of the currently validated property and more. These values change over time, so you cannot store a context and expect that the methods still return the same results later on.
