fActiveRecord::validate()

Would this function possibly make a query to the database? Does this function detect the error where the current record to be stored has a duplicate value in a UNIQUE_KEY field? Thanks. I admire your work.
Yes, fActiveRecord::validate() runs multiple database queries to try and ensure that an fSQLException is not possible when calling fActiveRecord::store(). It will detect duplicate values in unique constraints, along with most other issues where data is not valid according to the database schema.
