I am starting to use the XWork validation system.
I think it is a great, simple system.
A few changes that I suggest are :
AbstractRangeValidator
----------------------
Currently, if the value to be validated is null, a NPE is thrown, this can't
be avoided even by inserting a required validator, as all validators are
executed with the interceptor.
- I suggest that if the value is null to skip the comparison step.
- If a value is required, a required validator should be added, then this
range interceptor can have an effect.
Also, it would be nice to use the range validators to check either
- just min
- just max
- both min and max
Here is the code :
public void validate(Action action) throws ValidationException {
Comparable value = (Comparable) this.getFieldValue(getFieldName(),
action);
// if there is no value - don't do comparison
// if a value is required, a required validator should be added to
the field
if (value == null)
{
return;
}
// only check for a minimum value if the min parameter is set
if (getMinComparatorValue() != null &&
value.compareTo(getMinComparatorValue()) < 0)
{
addFieldError(getFieldName(), action);
}
// only check for a maximum value if the max parameter is
set
if (getMaxComparatorValue() != null &&
value.compareTo(getMaxComparatorValue()) > 0)
{
addFieldError(getFieldName(), action);
}
}
IntRangeValidator
-----------------
Change min and max defaults to be null rather that Integer(0)
I have added a Jira task for this comment
