                                           boolean isFeatureVerification,

monitor - progress monitor, can be null

Returns:

verification result

Throws:

CoreException

setParent

public void setParent(IVerifier parentVerifier)

Description copied from interface: IVerifier

Sets the parent verifier. The parent verifier can only be set once by the parent feature. It may used for different verification strategies. (for instance, you may decide that both the parent and current verifier must sucessfully verify the content reference, or that only one of them must verify)

Specified by:

setParent in interface IVerifier

Parameters:

parentVerifier - the parent verifier.

IVerifier.verify(IFeature, ContentReference, boolean, InstallMonitor)
