Apply multiple validator to the same field

[yuhong Qian]

  Hello all,
   
  I have a struts 1.1 app that I want to use Validator Framework to validate 
the user input on the browser. This app will need user to enter username and 
password. These two fields are both required fields and the minlength and 
maxlength of password is 5 and 8. 

I have myEclipse generate the validator-rules.xml, which means the validator of 
required, minlength and maxlength are generated automatically. 

And the validation.xml is like this: 

 
form-validation 
formset 
form name=logonForm 
field property=username depends=required 
arg0 key=LOGIN.FORM.USERNAME/ 
/field 

field property=password depends=required,minlength,maxlength 
arg0 key=LOGIN.FORM.PASSWORD/ 
arg1 name=minlength key=${var:minlength} resource=false/ 
arg1 name=maxlength key=${var:maxlength} resource=false/ 
var 
var-nameminlength/var-name 
var-value5/var-value 
/var 
var 
var-namemaxlength/var-name 
var-value8/var-value 
/var 
/field 


/form 
/formset 
/form-validation 

When I test my app, only the required validator is working, and I got a popup 
which says 
The user name is required. The password is required.. The problem is I did 
not get any message about the minlength and maxlength validation in the popup 
when I input a password with length 3 and 11. 

Why only the requred validator work? 

I  appreciate for nay answer!

Re: Apply multiple validator to the same field

In your validator-rules.xml you need to identify a java classname as well as 
a method which will handle that specific contingency e.g.

form-validation
global
 validator name=minlength
classname=org.apache.struts.util.StrutsValidator
method=validateMinLength
methodparams=java.lang.Object,
  org.apache.commons.validator.ValidatorAction,
  org.apache.commons.validator.Field,
  org.apache.struts.action.ActionErrors,
  javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest
depends=required
msg=errors.minlength/
