validator

[Gilbert, Antoine]

hi

I'm trying to use the validator framework of struts for the first time. (with struts 
1.1)

I'm unable to make a noob example working..

I have a single form

<html:form action='ui/base/author/save/SaveAs.do' target='_self' onsubmit=''>
<fmt:message key="saveAs.title"/>

calling SaveAsAction with a SaveAsForm

SaveAsForm is extending ValidatorForm

I added this in my struts-config

<message-resources parameter="ApplicationResources" null="false" />
<plug-in className="org.apache.struts.validator.ValidatorPlugIn">
    <set-property property="pathname" value="/WEB-INF/struts/validator-rules.xml"/>
    <set-property property="pathname" value="/WEB-INF/struts/validation.xml"/>
</plug-in>

in my validation.xml :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>
<form-validation>
<formset>
    <form name="SaveAsForm">
        <field property="name" depends="required,minLength">
            <!--msg name="mask" key="logon.username.maskmsg"/-->
            <arg0 key="error.noSelection"/>
            <var>
                <var-name>minLength</var-name>
                <var-value>3</var-value>
            </var>
        </field>
    </form>
</formset>
</form-validation>

I know my validate() method is called
    public ActionErrors validate(ActionMapping mapping,HttpServletRequest r){
        Logger.log(this.getClass().getName());
        return super.validate(mapping,r);
    }
but it not seem to validate with minLength basic validator

Does i have to add something in web.xml ? how i can have more print info from struts 
about possible errors of configuration ?
