HashMap backed FormBean and validation

Hi,

is it possible to validate formBeans that contain hashMaps, and if so, how?

The application im am working on requires an object, that has a variable 
number of attributes. Thus, I would be loading the object with its 
attributeset, create a DTO and then pass it to the my JSP page, which in 
turn is supposed to iterate over the attributes and display their values 
in form fields, so they can be edited. As I mentioned, I do not know in 
advance which attributes the object contains, so I have to use a hashmap 
backed formBean to store the information. But how can I validate the 
user input?

Thanks in advance,

Tom
