interface PropertyMetadataInterface in Plug 7

A container for validation metadata of a property.

What exactly you define as "property" is up to you. The validator expects implementations of {@link MetadataInterface} that contain constraints and optionally a list of named properties that also have constraints (and may have further sub properties). Such properties are mapped by implementations of this interface.
