NAME
       globus_gram_job_manager_rsl_validation_file - RSL Validation File Format The idea behind the RSL Validation file is to provide a mechanism
       for job manager scheduler interfaces to implement RSL extensions, while having the job manager still be able to decide whether a job
       request contains a valid RSL string.

       In addition to indicating what RSL attributes are valid, the RSL validation file contains information about when the RSL attribute may be
       used, it's default value, and the format of the attribute's value.

File Format
   Comments
       The RSL validation file may contain comments. Comments are indicated in the file by a line beginning with the # character. Comments
       continue until end-of-line. Comments are discarded by the RSL Validation File parser.

       Example:

       # I am a comment. Ignore me.

   ValidationRecords
       The RSL validition file consists of a set of ValidationRecords. Each ValidationRecord consists of a number of ValidationProperties
       associated with a single RSL attribute. ValidationRecords are separated by a blank line in the RSL validation file.

   Validation Properties
       A ValidationProperty is defined in the RSL validation file by a PropertyName and a PropertyValue. The syntax of a validation property is
       simply the PropertyName followed by a colon character, followed by a PropertyValue.

       If a PropertyValue begins with a double-quote, then it may span multiple lines. Double-quote characters within a multiline PropertyValue
       must be escaped by a preceding backslash character. An unquoted PropertyValue ends at the first newline character.

       Example:

       Attribute: directory
       Description: 'Specifies the path of the directory the jobmanager will
		     use as the default directory for the requested job.'

   Defined PropertyNames
       The following PropertyNames are understood by this version of the RSL validation file parser. Any unknown PropertyName will cause the
       ValidationProprty to be ignored by the parser.

       Attribute
	   The name of the RSL parameter to which this record refers.

       Description
	   A textual description of what the RSL parameter means.

       Default
	   The default value of the RSL parameter if it is not found in the RSL. The default value is only used if the DefaultWhen value matches
	   the current validation mode.

       Values
	   A string containing whitespace-separated list of enumerated values which are valid for this RSL attribute. For example, for the
	   'dryrun' parameter, this may be 'yes no'.

       RequiredWhen
	   Some subset of the 'when strings' (see below), indicating when the RSL parameter is required for the RSL to be valid.

       DefaultWhen
	   Some subset of the 'when strings' (see below) indicating when then RSL's default value will be used if the RSL attribute is not present
	   in the RSL.

       ValidWhen
	   Some subset of the 'when strings' (see below) indicating when then RSL attribute may be used.

   'When' Strings
       The set of when strings understood by the RSL validation file parser are

       GLOBUS_GRAM_JOB_SUBMIT
	   The RSL attribute pertains to job submission.

       GLOBUS_GRAM_JOB_MANAGER_RESTART
	   The RSL attribute pertains to job manager restart.

       GLOBUS_GRAM_JOB_MANAGER_STDIO_UPDATE
	   The RSL attribute pertains to the STDIO_UPDATE signal.
