[jira] [Comment Edited] (WW-4272) Add a fieldKey attribute to validators

["cococo42 (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WW-4272?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14081274#comment-14081274 ]

-------------------------------------------------------

In the given example we have the annotation:

{code}@RequiredStringValidator(type = ValidatorType.SIMPLE, fieldName = "model.name", key = "errors.required"){code}

supposing that in .properties we have:

{code}errors.required=Field ${getText(fieldName)} is required{code}

My "problem" is that in spite of the fact that I've used an alias (a fieldKey) I must have also model.name in .properties.

I've tried this change in .properties:

{code}errors.required=Field ${getText(fieldKey)} is required{code}

But it doesn't work (I suppose that it's because fieldKey is not on the stack). Is there a problem with my notation or simply it's not possible to do what I would like to do? Obviously I don't want to use different errors keys for each required field in my application. If it's possible, could you tell me the correct notation in .properties and/or in validation annotation to achieve that? (to use only one errors.required entry in .properties which make reference to fieldKey attribute of the field).

>             Project: Struts 2
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Annotations, XML Validators
>            Reporter: cococo42
>            Priority: Minor

> Taking into account that in the struts2 taglib a field usually has a name and a key (for its label), why there isn't also a fieldKey in validators?
> For example, you have the following field in JSP:
> {code:xml}
> <s:textfield name="name" key="personalData.name"/>
> {code}
> and then in the Action (ModelDriven) :
> {code:java}
> @RequiredStringValidator(type = ValidatorType.SIMPLE, fieldName = "model.name", key = "errors.required")
> {code}
> so you have to add to the .properties file {{personalData.name}} and also {{name}}. I would prefer something like:
> {code:java}
> @RequiredStringValidator(type = ValidatorType.SIMPLE, fieldName = "model.name", fieldKey = "personalData.name", key = "errors.required")
> {code}
> Am I missing something? If not, why does not exist the fieldKey in validators?
> Thank you in advance
