linkAndValidateGDPRObjects

public void linkAndValidateGDPRObjects()

Links and validates the GDPR configuration elements.

This method performs two key functions:

1. Linking: Resolves references to other GDPR configuration elements by their Ids, establishing the necessary relationships between them.
2. Validation: Ensures the integrity of the configuration by checking the existence and validity of all linked elements. This helps to maintain a robust and error-free GDPR configuration.

Subclasses must provide a concrete implementation for this method to perform the necessary linking and validation checks.

This implementation performs no specific checks. Subclasses may override this method to add their own checks.

This implementation also verifies that all referenced business interests exist.

Specified by:

linkAndValidateGDPRObjects in interface GDPRConfigurationElementI
