Interface Validateable

public interface Validateable

By implementing this interface, a service indicates that it is to be validated periodically. Nucleus keeps track of all services that implement Validateable and periodically calls "validate()" on those services. If a service fails validation, it should throw "ValidationException".

Validation is usually used to make sure that a service's properties are set within the parameters allowed by a license. Nucleus provides methods for comparing the values of a set of properties against an encrypted value.
