In CustomValidationAttribute description of validatorType is useless

[Scal-Human]

Type of issue

Lack of information

Description

Hi,

Trying to implement a custom validation attribute deriving from CustomValidationAttribute, the documentation on the constructor does not say anything useful about the validatorType.
Does it have to implement a certain interface ? be of a certain type ?

I ended up deriving ValidationAttribute which more suited my need.
Nevertheless, the documentation could be improved.

Can somebody add some more information ?
