Hi Folks,

just slogging my way up the learning curve of XWorks Validation with that 'here we go again' feeling, and it occurred to me that I might be able to plug in the old commons-validator more quickly.

XWorks's Struts2 validation framework is probably not that bad and of course commons-validator had its problems, but I still found it better than Spring MVC's Valang and I've seen activity on related Jakarta projects such as commons-beanutils which gives me the idea that there's a good chance commons-validator may even be improved.

I plugged commons-validator into a previous project last year and found it a very simple exercise. I don't think it would take much to implement it through a custom interceptor. Any opinions?

If I'm going to stick with XWorks validation though, there are a couple of questions:

- is there a way to have all the validation in one config file rather than having one config file per Action class?

- it can be localised can it? What I've seen so far in the examples is all just plain English, no l10n keys at all.


regards
Adam


ps Merry Christmas everyone!
