  • (set-validator! iref validator-fn)
Sets the validator-fn for a var/ref/agent/atom. validator-fn must be nil or a
side-effect-free fn of one argument, which will be passed the intended
new state on any state change. If the new state is unacceptable, the
validator-fn should return false or throw an exception. If the current state (root
value if var) is not acceptable to the new validator, an exception
will be thrown and the validator will not be changed.
