Method Detail¶
Validate¶
-
ShellEADBuilder.Validate¶ Validate whether the inputs to the component are sufficient for commit to be called.
If the component is not in a state to commit then an exception is thrown. For example, if the component requires you to set some property, this method will throw an exception if you haven’t set it. This method throws a not-yet-implemented NXException for some components.
Signature
Validate()Returns: Was self validation successful Return type: bool New in version NX3.0.1.
License requirements: None.
