Validate associate Map
Hi konference
How can I validate classes which are associated in collection.
The class "Page" contents Map with "PageText" classes:
Page.java
------------------
private Map<LanguageName, PageText> texts = new HashMap();
... getter / setter
PageText.java
--------------------------
private String description;
@StringLengthFieldValidator(message="Length too short",
key="validate.minLength.6", trim=true, mimLength = "6")
public void setDescription(String description) {
this.description = description;
}
Action.java
-------------------
private Page page;
//it work but I need validate all classes in Map, not only ['en']
@Validations( visitorFields = {
@VisitorFieldValidator(
message = "Default message", key = "i18n.key",
fieldName= "page.texts['en']", appendPrefix = false) }
)
public String execute() throws Exception{
return Action.SUCCESS;
}
------------------------
When I set: fieldName= "page.texts['en']" it work, but in Map are a lots of
classes.
I need validate all class in collection.
When I set only: fieldName= "page.texts" it dont work.
I need set something of : fieldName= "page.texts[*]" but it dont work.
How can I determine in attribute fieldName as to validate all classes in
"page.texts" ?
Is it possible or I must resolve it otherwise?
Thanks a lot

Big Al --
I started working on the Podcast last night and after a few moments playing
with the recording spftware, decided to switch over to the You Tube format.
It seemed that video and audio would solve many of the "code snippet"
problems. After a few minutes working on this, I detected an AC/DC song on
the radio and decided to play my drums awhile, after which I decided
technology is boring!
P.S. I will be uploading several hours of my home concert footage to You
Tube later today.
Peace,
Scott

If you can tell me how to put XML example code into an audio form I
might start to believe you about them selling as anything more than a
novelty.
The biggest problem is that when dealing with computers you are
extremely rarely dealing with the English language and the various code
snippets, configuration files, etc. are only really of benefit when
available visually as reference when reading (or hearing) the other
parts of the text.
But hey, if you want to record a podcast that has code
snippets/configuration examples in it and prove me wrong feel free to go
for it.
Al.
P.S. I've you want some career advice, work on the attention span. I've
seen a number of people fired for looking incompetent because they kept
disrupting co-workers with questions which could have been answered by
reading the manual and they got bored of the job they have to do and
churn out some really s**t code whilst messing around with other
things.. most employers really don't like it.

On a vaguely-related side note, I spent yesterday floating in my kayak counting herons (1 great blue), egrets (4, species unknown), and, parenthetically, turtles, wondering where my bug spray was.
The variety in turtle size was astonishing; some were bigger than my head (I know, right?!) while others were smaller than the palm of my hand (but still managed to avoid me--apparently they can swim).
If I could just figure out a decent laptop mount for the cockpit I'd be all set.

Hi Dave
Thanks a lot for your help. I found out that the VisitorFieldValidator can
work with Object, Arrays and Collections.
Then I convert the Map to Collection and it begins work correct.
@Validations( visitorFields = {
@VisitorFieldValidator(
message = "Default message", key = "i18n.key",
fieldName= "page.texts.values", appendPrefix = false) }
)
public String save() throws Exception{
LOG.debug("ManagerPagesAction - method:save");
pageService.update(page);
return execute();
}
...
----------------------
<interceptor-ref name="validation">
<param name="validateAnnotatedMethodOnly">true</param>
</interceptor-ref>
Thanks

i guess the short answer is: write it validateSave()-Method. The workflow interceptor should only call it if "save" is the invoke method.

One option would be to read the documentation for the validation interceptor [1,2] and its superclass, MethodFilterInterceptor [3].

I have to write custom validation method where I iterate all "PageText" class
and validate it.
I want to use validate() method from ActionSupport class but the method is
invoke always.
I need invoke validator method only when is invoke method save();
Is better resolution?
public String save() throws Exception{
if (!isValid())
return INPUT;
pageService.update(page);
return execute();
}
private boolean isValid(){
boolean success = true;
for (Map.Entry<LanguageName, PageText> e :
page.getTexts().entrySet()){
if (e.getValue().getDescription().length() < 6 ){
addFieldError(getComponentName(e.getValue(), "description"),
getText("validation.page.texts.description"));
success = false;
}
}
return success; //==========>
