Summary: ValidatorForm validate with external key
Product: Struts
Version: 1.2.8
Platform: Other
OS/Version: other
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P2
Component: Action
AssignedTo: dev@struts.apache.org
ReportedBy: paul4christ79@yahoo.com
The validation key of ValidatorForm is stored within the form. This is
ineffective for more complex cases when the action is coded to perform explicit
validation and there's no clean formula to determine the validation key.
For instance, a wizard form may want to send all requests through back.do and
next.do so that users are forced through two actions. This design decision
encapsulates and hides the internal steps that transition the view from step to
step; it's impossible to use the browser's back or forward button to resubmit
the step since only two generic actions are exposed.
Here the validation key of ValidatorForm and ValidatorActionForm are insufficent
because [1] it's not based on the form and [2] the URI is the same. It should be
up to the action, when necessary, to define the validation key.
Placing the logic in getValidationKey() is possible, but may be inappropriate or
impossible for some designs. Only the request and action mapping is exposed
through getValidationKey(), which may not be enough information for some use case.
