Thanks Wendy. I am trying to validate an array of ints.
The following should be true:
1. The array is not null.
2. The first value in its index should be higher than 0.
3. If the first value is 0 then its length must be greater than 2.
The following validation failed miserably:
<field property="roleIds" depends="validwhen">
<arg0 key="lms.role"/>
<var>
<var-name>test</var-name>
<var-value> ((roleIds != null) or ( ( (roleIds[0] == -1) and
(roleIds.length > 1 ) ) or ( roleIds[0] > 0 ) ) )</var-value>
</var>
</field>
Thanks.
Chetan

I think validwhen only works with String and Integer. Here's the
ANTLR grammar file:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/struts/struts1/trunk/core/src/main/java/org/
apache/struts/validator/validwhen/ValidWhenParser.g
What are you trying to validate? Generally, validwhen is used when
validation for one field depends on the value of some other field.
Also, there may be some problems with validwhen and arrays, Google
turned up a couple of mailing list threads and a JIRA issue
(STR-2802).
