http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=20449 Define flag for validating current page only in multipage form Summary: Define flag for validating current page only in multipage form Product: Commons Version: unspecified Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: Other Component: Validator AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] In our current application, we have about 60 jsps. The pages are set up in a wizard-like interface. Depending on the data entered, a different path through the pages will be taken. All data is captured in a single ActionForm, so we are using multipage validation. Each page is numbered, but the pages are not numbered sequentially. Depending on the data entered, a user on page 10 may be taken to page 8 or page 12. In the current way that the multipage validation works, if there is a required field on page 8, but the user has been taken to page 12, it will generate an error requiring the field on page 8. It would be nice if there were a flag that could be set that would allow the validate method to only validate the current page, rather than all pages less than or equal to the current page. This would then need to be integrated into struts to set the flag. Here is an example of how it could be done: public ValidatorResults validate() throws ValidatorException { ValidatorResults results = new ValidatorResults(); Locale locale = null; if (hResources.containsKey(LOCALE_KEY)) { locale = (Locale) hResources.get(LOCALE_KEY); } hResources.put(VALIDATOR_KEY, this); if (locale == null) { locale = Locale.getDefault(); } if (resources == null) { throw new ValidatorException("Resources not defined for Validator"); } Form form = resources.get(locale, formName); if (form != null) { for (Iterator i = form.getFields().iterator(); i.hasNext();) { Field field = (Field) i.next(); /*********************************** Check for the flag here ************************************/ if (validateCurrentPageOnly) { if ((field.getPage() == page) && (field.getDepends() != null)) { validateField(field, results); } } else { if ((field.getPage() <= page) && (field.getDepends() != null)) { validateField(field, results); } } } } return results; } --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
