Enabling or disabling incremental validation in the event definition editor

In the event definition editor, incremental validation is disabled by default. This means that validation rules are not enforced (and validation errors are not displayed) as you work with an event definition in the event definition editor. However, when you attempt to save the event definition, validation rules will be enforced regardless of whether incremental validation is disabled. A preference is provided that enables you to choose whether you want incremental validation enabled or disabled by default.

To enable or disable incremental validation:


Procedure

  1. From the Window menu, select Preferences. The Preferences window opens.

  2. In the Preferences window, select Event Definition Editor. The Event Definition Editor page opens.

  3. If you want incremental validation enabled, ensure that the Enable incremental validation check box is selected.

  4. If you want to disable incremental validation, clear the Enable incremental validation check box.

  5. Click OK.
