That worked - thanks!  I've hacked together some client-side javascript for
this since there's not one in the validator natively - I'll try to work a
method up for equals.

Re: [validator] requiredif based on a value

[David Graham]

So, you're saying that effectiveDate is requiredif state == 940?

Try adding [0] to the end of the field* vars.

David

Is it possible to require a field based on the value of another field?  I
tried the following, but no dice:
  
  
  
field
state
  
  
fieldTest
EQUAL
  
  
fieldValue
940
  
  
Thanks,

RE: [VALIDATOR] requiredif ??

[Weber, Jeremy]

I had a ton of problems with required if.  I finally just ripped it out and
made my own based on it.  In the code I am using, (I am unsure its b2/b3 or
a tip build at this point) I dont see a NOTEQUAL comparison

Heres what I am using  See inline comments for explanation. 


public final static String FIELD_TEST_NULL = "NULL";
public final static String FIELD_TEST_NOTNULL = "NOTNULL";
public final static String FIELD_TEST_EQUAL = "EQUAL";


public static boolean validateJSWRequiredIf(Object bean,
 ValidatorAction va, Field
field,
 ActionErrors errors,

org.apache.commons.validator.Validator validator,
 HttpServletRequest request) {

Object form =
validator.getResource(org.apache.commons.validator.Validator.BEAN_KEY);

boolean required = false;
String value=null;

System.out.println("PROPERTY: " + field.getProperty());

if (isString(bean)) {
value = (String) bean;
} else {
value = ValidatorUtil.getValueAsString(bean,
field.getProperty());

}

System.out.println("VALUE from VsValidate: " +  value);

int i = 0;
String fieldJoin = "AND";
if
(!GenericValidator.isBlankOrNull(field.getVarValue("field-join"))) {
fieldJoin = field.getVarValue("field-join");
}
if (fieldJoin.equalsIgnoreCase("AND")) {
required = true;
}
while (!GenericValidator.isBlankOrNull(field.getVarValue("field[" +
i + "]"))) {
String dependProp = field.getVarValue("field[" + i + "]");
String dependTest = field.getVarValue("field-test[" + i + "]");
String dependTestValue = field.getVarValue("field-value[" + i +
"]");
String dependIndexed = field.getVarValue("field-indexed[" + i +
"]");

System.out.println("DEPEND PROP: " + dependProp);
System.out.println("DEPEND Test: " + dependTest);
System.out.println("DEPEND TEST VALUE: " + dependTestValue);


if (dependIndexed == null)
dependIndexed = "false";
String dependVal = null;
boolean this_required = false;
if (field.isIndexed() && dependIndexed.equalsIgnoreCase("true"))
{
String key = field.getKey();
if ((key.indexOf("[") > -1) &&
 (key.indexOf("]") > -1)) {
String ind = key.substring(0, key.indexOf(".") + 1);
dependProp = ind + dependProp;
}
}
dependVal = ValidatorUtil.getValueAsString(form, dependProp);
if (dependTest.equals(FIELD_TEST_NULL)) {
if ((dependVal != null) && (dependVal.length() > 0)) {
this_required = false;
} else {
this_required = true;
}
}
if (dependTest.equals(FIELD_TEST_NOTNULL)) {
if ((dependVal != null) && (dependVal.length() > 0)) {
this_required = true;
} else {
this_required = false;
}
}
if (dependTest.equals(FIELD_TEST_EQUAL)) {

this_required = dependTestValue.equalsIgnoreCase(dependVal);

//HAD TO ADD THIS TO DO AN EQUALS COMPARISON
String dependPropValue =
ValidatorUtil.getValueAsString(bean, dependProp);
if ( ! dependTestValue.equals( dependPropValue ) ){
   System.out.println("print here---");
   return false;
}
//END ADDTION
}


if (fieldJoin.equalsIgnoreCase("AND")) {
required = required && this_required;
} else {
required = required || this_required;
}
i++;
}
if (required) {
if ((value != null) && (value.length() > 0)) {
return true;
} else {
//errors.add(field.getKey(),
Resources.getActionError(request, va, field));

errors.add(field.getKey(),StrutsValidatorUtil.getActionError(request,va,fiel
d));
return false;
}
}
return true;

A way to deal with that might be to look at commons-jexl, which implements
a superset of the JSTL EL language.  It's what Jelly uses for expression
evaluation.

Yes, except that Validator, which is a Commons project, would then be
dependent on JSTL, which is a JSP-specific project.

Gee, I haven't been paying much attention to this issue, but that looks
like there could be some synergy with the JSTL EL engine.  You could

Well, short of implementing a full boolean expression language inside
Validator, it was the best I could do.  Maybe I'll write a simple parser
for Validator 1.1 so you could say:

   test
   ((prospect == null) && (prospectNameOrId != null) &&
(action != "Add Prospect"))


Of course, since requiredif is just a rule in the sample apps, anyone
else could write it too.

Yes.  I have some simple validations like: 
   

   
and
   
 
 
   datePatternStrict
   MM/dd/
 
   
on the same form that are working fine.

Which?  Literal value, or should I be specifying a key to something in
.properties?  The example was checking something equal to "true" so I wasn't
sure.

In any event... I actually need !action.startsWith("Add"); which I don't
think is going to be possible with the Validator as-is.  It looks like you
can write your own, but I'm not familiar enough yet with how everything
works.  I ended up overriding validate()in my form, calling
super.validate(), and adding this:

if (prospect == null && "".equals(address) && !action.startsWith("Add") ) {
   if (errors == null) {
  errors = new ActionErrors();
   }
   errors.add("address", new ActionError("error.prospect.address.required")
);
}

But I still don't see a reason why what I had in the xml file would not
work.

It shouldn't, unless it's the same field name.

You're correct, they're for identifying separate clauses in the
condition.

No, it doesn't.  It's as if that rule isn't even there-- if there is no
prospect, and there is a prospect name, even if the address is blank, it
passes validation and goes to the next step.

What about the action != Add Prospect part, have I done that right?  I'm
trying to compare the value of the action parameter (it's a hidden field on
the form) to the literal String "Add Prospect".  (While we're at it, any
chance of comparing the value to a property in the
ApplicationResources.properties file?)

Are all of the rules (the  tags) totally separate?  I mean, there's
no chance one of the other  tags is affecting this one, right?

Also, the example in the docs uses indexed properties, which I have never
worked with.  Am I correct that the [] square brackets in my  tags only
have to do with multiple conditions and have nothing to do with indexed
properties?

Thanks!

Re: [VALIDATOR] requiredif ??

[Matthew Meyer]

Is there any reason that none of the books, or docs 
discuss writeing javascript pluggable validators. I wrote 
my own xorDependency pluggable javascript validator, one 
field or the other field required but not both. It takes 
one var named secondField that tells it the other field in 
the ValidatorForm to check.
I also wrote a andDependancy, that check to that a second 
and an optional third field are exist, if any one othe the 
three exist nice for things like optional three field 
phone numbers. Takes one var named secondField and an 
optional var thirdField.

RE: [VALIDATOR] requiredif ??

[Sri Sankaran]

I suppose that is an acceptable price to pay for being to declaratively define 
validations.

I am hoping to take advantage of requiredif to stop validator from validating upon the 
first error encountered -- of course it works only where one is testing the 'required' 
rule.

Well, short of implementing a full boolean expression language inside
Validator, it was the best I could do.  Maybe I'll write a simple parser
for Validator 1.1 so you could say:

   test
   ((prospect == null) && (prospectNameOrId != null) &&
(action != "Add Prospect"))


Of course, since requiredif is just a rule in the sample apps, anyone
else could write it too.

A quick look at that configuration looks correct. Let me know if it
doesn't work for you.

[PILGRIM, Peter, FM]

In the Struts User Guide there is a large example with indexed properties.

http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/userGuide/dev_validator.html

PS: I spend today resurrecting an old programmatical validation 
from a previous project.

RE: [VALIDATOR] requiredif ??

[Wendy Smoak]

I'm Still struggling with requiredif... there doesn't seem to be a working
example of it included with 1.1b3.  I've gone through the documentation and
come up with this.  I'm trying to say that address is required only if
  1. prospect is null
  2. prospectNameOrId is not null
  3. action is not equal to "Add Prospect"


  
  
field[0]
prospect
  
  
field-test[0]
NULL
  
  
field[1]
prospectNameOrId
  
  
field-test[1]
NOTNULL
  
  
field[2]
action
  
  
field-test[2]
NOTEQUAL
  
  
field-value[2]
Add Prospect
  
  
field-join
AND

RE: Validator requiredIf

[James Turner]

Requiredif doesn't implement client-side validation, to my mind it would
be too hard to come up with a mechanism to generate Javascript for the
fairly complex cases you can generate using it.  If someone wants to
take a crack at writing it, feel free.

Have you updated your project with the validator-rules.xml file from the 
nightly build, besides updating all the
other associated commeons-xxx.jar files?
