abstract class Constraint in Zircon Profile 8

Contains the properties of a constraint definition.

A constraint can be defined on a class, an option or a getter method. The Constraint class encapsulates all the configuration required for validating this class, option or getter result successfully.

Constraint instances are immutable and serializable.

@property array $groups The groups that the constraint belongs to
