The ValidateExample class is to show people how to use the validator in a standalone app outside of Struts. The JUnit tests ensure that everything works. So, ideally both places should be updated when a new feature is added (although the test cases take priority).

Thanks,
David

The patch came w/ a mod to the example which demonstrates it working, and
after the patch all existing tests passed (there have been several
modifications to the Validator tree in Jakarta CVS since the patch, I
haven't syched and run the tests again -- I cannot for the life of me
imagine it breaking anything, but I believe there's this expression
"famous last words..."). I can try to find time to code a JUnit test, but
we're pretty jammed up for time on the project I'm on.

Thanks for the response, BTW.

Dave

You should send notes like this to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the


project name in the subject line (ie. [validator]).  I did look at this
when
you submitted and think it's a good idea.  What I'd really like to see is
a
JUnit test case (or just another test method on an existing test case)
that
proves this works.  Once there's a test case for it, I'll commit it ASAP.

Thanks for the patches/ideas,
David
