string getMessage() Returns the violation message. Return Value string The violation message

string getPropertyPath() Returns the property path from the root element to the violation. Return Value string The property path indicates how the validator reached the invalid value from the root element. If the root element is a Person instance with a property "address" that contains an Address instance with an invalid property "street", the generated property path is "address.street". Property access is denoted by dots, while array access is denoted by square brackets, for e

mixed getInvalidValue() Returns the value that caused the violation. Return Value mixed The invalid value that caused the validated constraint to fail.

Constraint|null getConstraint() Returns the constraint whose validation caused the violation. Return Value Constraint|null The constraint or null if it is not known

array getParameters() Returns the parameters to be inserted into the raw violation message. Return Value array A possibly empty list of parameters indexed by the names that appear in the message template.

string getMessageTemplate() Returns the raw violation message. The raw violation message contains placeholders for the parameters returned by {@link getParameters}. Typically you'll pass the message template and parameters to a translation engine. Return Value string The raw violation message

int|null getPlural() Returns a number for pluralizing the violation message. For example, the message template could have different translation based on a parameter "choices": Please select exactly one entry. (choices=1) Please select two entries. (choices=2) This method returns the value of the parameter for choosing the right pluralization form (in this case "choices"). Return Value int|null The number to use to pluralize of the message

class ConstraintViolation implements ConstraintViolationInterface Default implementation of {@ConstraintViolationInterface}. Methods __construct(string $message, string $messageTemplate, array $parameters, mixed $root, string $propertyPath, mixed $invalidValue, int|null $plural = null, mixed $code = null, Constraint $constraint = null, mixed $cause = null) Creates a new constraint violation. string __toString() Converts the violation into a string for debugging purposes. string

string|null getCode() Returns a machine-digestible error code for the violation. Return Value string|null The error code

validate(mixed $value, Constraint $constraint) Checks if the passed value is valid. Parameters mixed $value The value that should be validated Constraint $constraint The constraint for the validation
