        Description copied from class: Thing


        Validates the configuration of the thing during the import process. This method is called whenever a thing is created or modified via the REST APIs. During the validation step, there may be other associated entities (including thing shapes and templates) that are being imported. These can be accessed via the importedEntities collection if needed.

        Note that some resources belonging to the thing or other associated entities may not be available during this step in the lifecycle.

        It is required for all subclasses of Thing to call super.validateConfiguration(importedEntities) if they override this method.

        Overrides:
        validateConfiguration in class Thing
        Parameters:
        importedEntityCollections - - a typed collection of entities currently being imported
        Throws:
        java.lang.Exception - If an error occurs
