Abstract
In this chapter, you’ll learn how the Enterprise Library can facilitate the implementation of domain (business) rules within an application. With Enterprise Library 2.0, you were on your own when figuring out how to implement this kind of functionality, but Enterprise Library 3.0 has a solution to help complete the puzzle for you. The Validation Application Block allows you to provide validators for .NET Framework data types. These validators apply specific validation rules to objects and determine whether the objects pass validation. This can be useful in many parts of any application, such as validating a tax identification number entered into a text box or validating data passed into a web service.
