[bv-dev] When is a method validated

[Gunnar Morling]

Hi,

I agree with respect to parameter validation.

But shouldn't the validation interceptor also run last for return value
validation, that is after all interceptors potentially modifying the return
value? That way both contracts (pre- and postconditions) are enforced as
closest to their clients (method implementation respectively method caller)
as possible. Other interceptors generally couldn't rely on the correctness
of parameters/return values.

The order would then look like that:

...
validate parameters
method call
...
validate return value
