Hi All,
I have problem in building Custom Validation.
I want build custom validator that accept name property for the other
component that it will make the validation with it.
I need to build validator similar to the t:validateEqual
here are what I did:-
copy and past the EqualValidator, and EqualValidatorTag and make code
changes to do what I want
changed the VALIDATOR_ID from "org.apache.myfaces.validator.Equal"
to " com.oc.validators.MyValidator";
and created tld
<tag>
<name>validateFromThrue</name>
<tag-class>com.oc.itworx.HR.validators.FromThrueValidatorTag</tag-class>
<body-content>JSP</body-content>

values.

EL expressions.

validation
