Robert Munteanu closed SLING-4010. ---------------------------------- > Allow validator to set a custom failure message > ----------------------------------------------- > > Key: SLING-4010 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-4010 > Project: Sling > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Validation > Reporter: Konrad Windszus > Assignee: Bertrand Delacretaz > Labels: validation, validator > Fix For: Validation 1.0.0 > > > Currently the Validator may only return a boolean value or an exception in > case the validator was called with invalid parametrization > (https://github.com/apache/sling/blob/trunk/contrib/validation/api/src/main/java/org/apache/sling/validation/api/Validator.java). > In some cases the validator could give some important information about why > the validation failed. This is e.g. the cause for a reference validator where > the cause for a failed validation could be: > # referenced resource is not existent > # referenced resource is not having the right resource type > # referenced resource is not activated > So instead of only returning a boolean value, it should also be possible to > return a failure message. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
