ContentModel is an interface that can be used by your own custom validators to plug in various types of content models. It is used internally as well for the same purposes.
Since there are a number of optimizations that can be used for simple or special content models, this class provides the interface via which all of the various content model types are managed. So the validation handler class has a list of things derived from this class. It finds the one for the desired element, then asks it to validate the element contents.
The validation interface from the scanner to the validation handle provides a child count and an array of element name indices into the string pool. So it is assumed that those same parameters will be passed to the content model to be validated. Therefore the validateContent() method accepts this standard view of the elements to be validated.

ContentLeafNameTypeVector |
getContentLeafNameTypeVector()
|
void |
setSubstitutionGroupComparator(SubstitutionGroupComparator comparator)
The setter method to pass in the SubstitutionGroupComparator. |
int |
validateContent(QName[] children,
int offset,
int length)
Check that the specified content is valid according to this content model. |
int |
validateContentSpecial(QName[] children,
int offset,
int length)
This method is different from "validateContent" in that it will try to use the SubstitutionGroupComparator to match children against the content model. |
int |
whatCanGoHere(boolean fullyValid,
InsertableElementsInfo info)
Returns information about which elements can be placed at a particular point in the passed element's content model. |

public int validateContent(QName[] children,
int offset,
int length)
throws java.lang.Exception
A value of -1 in the children array indicates a PCDATA node. All other indexes will be positive and represent child elements. The count can be zero, since some elements have the EMPTY content model and that must be confirmed.
children - The children of this element. Each integer is an index within
the StringPool of the child element name. An index
of -1 is used to indicate an occurrence of non-whitespace character
data.offset - Offset into the array where the children starts.length - The number of entries in the children array.java.lang.Exception - Thrown on error.

Note that the incoming content model to test must be valid at least up to the insertion point. If not, then -1 will be returned and the info object will not have been filled in.
If, on return, the info.isValidEOC flag is set, then the 'insert after' element is a valid end of content. In other words, nothing needs to be inserted after it to make the parent element's content model valid.
fullyValid - Only return elements that can be inserted and still
maintain the validity of subsequent elements past the
insertion point (if any). If the insertion point is at
the end, and this is true, then only elements that can
be legal final states will be returned.info - An object that contains the required input data for the method,
and which will contain the output information if successful.InsertableElementsInfopublic ContentLeafNameTypeVector getContentLeafNameTypeVector()
