Jaw drops!
Thanks. As many times as I've looked at the javadoc for ec's this is one method I hadn't noticed. It certainly is in line with what my question was about.

I have a form that has fields that are linked to multiple EOs, one of which is the "principal" entity, the others being related to it. (However, the situation I describe would arise even if there are no relationships among the entities.) It seems that when I invoke save and the EOs are validated, the first one that throws a validation exception terminates the validation process such that any remaining EOs will not be validated. Simply put, from the user's perspective not all invalid data will be caught. The way I handle this problem is to have an editing context delegate perform the validation via editingContextShouldValidateChanges. Before returning false from this method I take over the validation process by validating all the updated EOs in the EC and I throw an aggregate validation exception if needed. I use the methods in ERXEntityClassDescription to perform the validation. Is this a recommended method, or is there a preferred alternative? And in any case, do I understand the process correctly?
