/**
 * Stores the node-independent state of a validation run.
 *
 * When the validator validates a graph of objects, it uses two classes to
 * store the state during the validation:
 *
 * <ul>
 * <li>For each node in the validation graph (objects, properties, getters) the
 * validator creates an instance of {@link ExecutionContextInterface} that
 * stores the information about that node.</li>
 * <li>One single <tt>GlobalExecutionContextInterface</tt> stores the state
 * that is independent of the current node.</li>
 * </ul>

 *             Use {@link Context\ExecutionContextInterface} instead.
