Description Brian Svihovec

In RBD, this type of validation was known as 'Target Specific Validation', and was performed by the preprocessor.  In EDT, this type of validation needs to be done by the generators so that it can be extensible.

Examples include:

* SQL operations are not supported in JavaScript
* Programs are not supported in JavaScript

etc.

The validation messages reported by this framework will be used in enhancement 362559 to indicate to the user that generation could not be completed.

Hi, Brian
Can this one be finished in I2 as Bug 362559 is depends on it and is plan for I2.

I have set this for the .8 backlog.  There is little to no chance this will make .8 I2, and it may not make .8.

I have added support for this via the generator contributors. A generator contributor can specifiy a list of supported part types and a list of supported stereotypes for generation. During generation, if a part being generated has a subtype and that subtype is not in the list contributed supported stereotypes, an error is placed on the part and generation is halted. If the part does not have a subtype, then the part type must be in the list of supported part types, or an error is given and generation is stopped.

Setting the target milestone to Future for bugs that won't be addressed in 0.8.2.
