Validator is crap; don't waste your time. Mark
-----Original Message----- From: Stephen Bennett [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, August 13, 2003 11:39 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Struts Validator Has anyone had any problems getting the Struts Validator to work? I have a small sample app that works OK but cannot get my main app to work! As far as I can see I have done everything the same as in the sample one. I have noticed that when the sample app that works starts up I get four messages from the ValidatorPlugin the first pair mentions the validation.xml and the validator-rules.xml then later it says ValidatorPlugin initResources then the previous xml messages. With the real app that doesn't work I don't get these second initResources messages. I am not sure if this is significant or not, does anyone have any ideas? I have: - <plug-in className="org.apache.struts.validator.ValidatorPlugIn"> <set-property property="pathnames" value="/WEB-INF/validator-rules.xml,/WEB-INF/validation.xml"/> </plug-in> in my struts-config and <form name="ValidationType"> <field property="code" depends="required"> <arg0 key="validationCode.code"/> </field> <field property="constant" depends="required,integer"> <arg0 key="validationCode.constant"/> </field> </form> in my validation.xml validator-rules.xml are default my formbean is extending ValidatorActionForm and my action mapping is <action path="/ValidationType" name="validationTypeForm" input="/jsp/validationtype/validationType.jsp" type="com.mycompany.ValidationTypeAction" scope="session"> <forward name="Success" path="/jsp/success.jsp" redirect="true"/> <forward name="Failure" path="/jsp/failure.jsp" redirect="true"/> </action> I am using Struts 1.1 with Tomcat 4.1.24 on XP Can anyone help?
