# Referencial File Validator

###### Identifier:

org.eclipse.wst.validation.referencialFileValidator

###### Since:

This extension point is part of an interim API that is still under development and expected to change significantly before reaching stability. It is being made available at this early stage to solicit feedback from pioneering adopters on the understanding that any code that uses this API will almost certainly be broken (repeatedly) as the API evolves.

###### Description:

This extension point is used for referential file validation. This extension point should be extended if you have files that reference other files and would like the validation on referenced files to run when the validation on the referencing file is run. The Post Validator operation that is used by this extension point expects a flat list of files to run validation on referenced files.
