15 * ConfigurableRequirementsInterface must be implemented by URL generators that
16 * can be configured whether an exception should be generated when the parameters
17 * do not match the requirements. It is also possible to disable the requirements
18 * check for URL generation completely.
20 * The possible configurations and use-cases:
21 * - setStrictRequirements(true): Throw an exception for mismatching requirements. This
22 * is mostly useful in development environment.
23 * - setStrictRequirements(false): Don't throw an exception but return null as URL for
24 * mismatching requirements and log the problem. Useful when you cannot control all
25 * params because they come from third party libs but don't want to have a 404 in
26 * production environment. It should log the mismatch so one can review it.
27 * - setStrictRequirements(null): Return the URL with the given parameters without
28 * checking the requirements at all. When generating an URL you should either trust
29 * your params or you validated them beforehand because otherwise it would break your
30 * link anyway. So in production environment you should know that params always pass
31 * the requirements. Thus this option allows to disable the check on URL generation for
32 * performance reasons (saving a preg_match for each requirement every time a URL is
