      Throws:
        `ValidationException`

    - #### validateArrayParam

          RequestParameter validateArrayParam(List<String> value)
                                       throws ValidationException

      Parameters:
        `value` - list of values that will be validated
      Throws:
        `ValidationException`

    - #### isOptional

          boolean isOptional()

      Deprecated.
      Return true if parameter is optional
      Returns:
        true if is optional, false otherwise

    - #### parameterTypeValidator

          ParameterTypeValidator parameterTypeValidator()

      Deprecated.
      Return ParameterTypeValidator instance used inside this parameter validation rule
      Returns:

    - #### allowEmptyValue

          boolean allowEmptyValue()

      Deprecated.
      allowEmptyValue is used in query, header, cookie and form parameters. This is its behaviour:
      1. During validation, the ValidationHandler check if there's a parameter with combination of location and name as defined in this rule
      2. If it not exists, It will check allowEmptyValue and if there's a default value set inside ParameterTypeValidator:
      - If this condition it's true, It marks as validated the parameter and returns the default value (inside RequestParameter)
      - If this condition it's false, It throws ValidationException
      3. If the parameter exists, It checks if parameter is null or empty string:
      - If allowEmptyValue it's true, It marks as validated the parameter and returns the default value if it exists (inside RequestParameter)
      - If allowEmptyValue it's false, It throws ValidationException
      Returns:
        value of allowEmptyValue
