[Validator] indexed/Array of Strings validation

["Daggumalli, Sivaji" <SD...@amfam.com>]

Hi,

 

I am planning to use Commons Validator as standalone jar (outside of
struts) in my application. 

 

I was wondering that whether the following scenarios are possible by
commons Validator either by default or by extending?

1)       Indexed fileds validation - in case of Array of Strings

         How to know which element index is failed, I mean in Validate
Result, so that I can highlight corresponding field in JSP? 

     Validate all remaining indexed fileds in case of first element
index fails?

 

2)       There is list of special characters suppressed application wide

*       And then some of them are can be revoked/ reinstated per field

*       Ex: application wide suppressed special chars are       *&^%$'
(these global suppressed chars check should be run against all fields)

o        But first name is allowed for special char ' (single quote)

 

Is there anyway this can be done with commons Validator?           

 

Thanks in advance

Siva
