passing form parameters to a custom validator
Hi all,
I'm trying to write a custom field validator which needs other fields to
validate the field I need to validate. How can I pass field values (and not
static params) to a field validator in the validation xml? I'm using Struts
2.1.6.
Thank you.

I've been thinking about <param/> tag, with it you can set any field
in your validator and it can be an OGNL expression.

I think that this may work for the expression validator because you are
supplying an expression.
Maybe I need to use an expression too, but I don't know how to evaluate it
within my Java class for Validator.

Did you try to use param tag as below?
<field name="employee.employeeType">
<field-validator type="expression" short-circuit="false">
<param name="expression">${@pl.org.lenart.ems.model.EmployeeType@.value()
!= 'dd'}</param>
<param name="messageKey">error.employee.type.required</param>
<message />
</field-validator>
</field>

I've written a custom field validator, which needs other field values to
validate his field. I need a way to pass that values to that field
validator.

Frankly, I don't understand, are you trying to pass data from
validator xml configuration to action?

Yes, I did. But in the action the string takes the value "${field}" and not
the field value.

Did it this way. Passed field names via the tag, then obtained values inside
the validator class using getFieldValue(fieldName, object).
Thank you for suggestions.

Rather than pass this, that and the other parameter(s) to your validator,
why not just retrieve what you need from inside the validator? You have the
ActionInvocation passed to your doIntercept(...), which contains the
ValueStack containing your objects.
Peace,
Scott
