Re: Validation and conversion conflict - best method?

Carl, if I could bother you for a few more details? I like your solution, it seems elegant (to me at least!). I'm trying to implement it, but I'm not getting the results that you are. I've set up the type converter, and I've verified that it is being invoked. When my conversion fails (for exam

s2: Possible bug found - how to report it?

Continuing with my validation problems, I think I've discovered a bug in how struts2 handles the method invocation after validation. Here is the submit tag: and in the struts.xml ScheduleDetailAction_callMe If the form associated with the form tag gets validated succesfully, everythi

Re: s2: Validation xml file not being used when validating a method

Re: s2: Validation xml file not being used when validating a method
