@JPercivall sorry, I thought you were wanting behavior like that in regards
to [your comment
above.](https://github.com/apache/nifi-minifi/pull/45#discussion_r85137468)
I must've misread the comment, now it's looking more like it may have been
automatically addressed by the other validation change which clears the errors
before converting.
> Maintainable Configuration Versioning

> Key: MINIFI-117

> Project: Apache NiFi MiNiFi
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Bryan Rosander
> Assignee: Bryan Rosander
>
> In order to avoid a tangled web of if/else statements around every possible
> permutation of config.yml and an equally complicated validation routine, we
> need to utilize a versioning strategy that allows for specific parsing and
> validation code for each version of the ConfigSchema.
> This will allow us to determine if a schema will be compatible with an older
> MiNiFi instance more easily by validating the structure of the file at a
> given version while still supporting an upconvert on read to the latest
> ConfigSchema while parsing at runtime.
> It should also facilitate a deprecation strategy of removing older versions'
> classes without needing to touch current implementation
