Method: Glue::Validation::ClassMethods#validate_related

Defined in:
lib/og/validation.rb

Validate that a property relation is not nil. This works for all relations.

You should not put a validation in both related classes, because it can cause infinite looping.

The Og libraries are required for this method to work. You can override this method if you want to use another OR mapping library.

Example

class Uncle

has_many :secrets, Secret
validate_related :secrets

end

class Secret

belongs_to :uncle, Uncle

end
