static check (line 83)

Validate an associated array of parameters against a type definition map.

Normally, you don't need to call this function directly. Ist's called from every select(), insert(), update() and delete() function. See the IConnector interface.

A map is an array of type definitions. A type definition is an array with two or three elements. Format:

 $map[] = array(name, type[, default]);
 name:    The key of an element in the associated array to validate.
 type:    A type identifier, see TypeValidator::$isType.
 default: An optional default value. Can be of any type, also null.

If the type of $param[name] is wrong and can't be converted to the required type, an exception is thrown. If $param[name] doesn't exist or is null, the optional default value is used or - if no default value is given - an exception is thrown. Exsample:

• return: A valid (and possibly modified) associated array of parameters.
• throws: Exception when $param doesn't match the type definition $map.
• access: public

• array $param: An associated array of parameters to validate.
• array $map: An array of type definitions.

static checkParam (line 148)

Check if an associated array of parameters match a type definition.

If not, an exception is thrown.

Valid parameters may be are converted or substituted to match the field definitien.

• throws: Exception when $param doesn't match the type definition.
• access: protected

• array &$param: An associated array of parameters to validate.
• array $field: A type definition array.
