Public Shared Function IsValidMaskDescriptor (maskDescriptor As MaskDescriptor) As Boolean

Parameters

maskDescriptor
MaskDescriptor

The mask descriptor to test for validity.

Returns

Boolean

true if maskDescriptor is valid; otherwise, false.

Remarks

A valid MaskDescriptor must meet the following conditions.

  • Not null.

  • Not null or an empty mask.

  • Not null or an empty name.

  • Not null or an empty sample.

  • The sample is correct based on the mask and all required edit characters have been provided. This means the mask is completed but not necessarily full.
