I have submitted a patch in commons to UrlValidator which returns a code http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28190
The existing isValid(value) method still works returning true/false. I have added isValid(Object value, boolean expandedCode) method which returns an integer code. If expandedCode is false it returns a code indicating which part of the url is invalid (general format, scheme, authority, path, query or fragment). If expandedCode is true it returns a more detailled code indicating a more specific error with the url.
