Stores the node-independent state of a validation run.
When the validator validates a graph of objects, it uses two classes to store the state during the validation:
<ul> <li>For each node in the validation graph (objects, properties, getters) the validator creates an instance of {@link ExecutionContextInterface} that stores the information about that node.</li> <li>One single <tt>GlobalExecutionContextInterface</tt> stores the state that is independent of the current node.</li> </ul>
