Perform date validation only if field required (requiredIf/validWhen)

[Ivan Jensen]

Hi,

I have three radio buttons in a form,

---
o Today
o Tomorrow
o From this date: [  ] 
---

I am currently using requiredIf and date validation on the date textarea .  The date 
entry is only required if the correct radio button is selected and the date validation 
makes sure this is in the right format.  

This works fine, until the user enters an invalid date that doesn't pass date 
validation and *then* select's one of the other radio buttons, and submits.  The 
requiredIf passes fine (not required), but the date validation is still perfomed and 
returns the page to the user.

Is it possible to perform date validation only if requiredif decides the fields are 
required?  That is, don't test things that aren't required, without:
  * extra javascript in the page
  * without using custom validation java-code (the rest of the form's validation works 
great)

I have looked at validWhen (and am not aversed to going to the nightly-build), but 
can't see the solution there either.

Any help would be appreciated,

Ivan

Problem with requiredIf validation

[Markus]

Hi,

we try to concat more than two conditions with requiredIf.
Something like (selectionOne==1 || selectionOne==2)  value ==2
The problem is that it is not clear how the validator evaluates the
expression.
Does anyone having experiences with that.


TIA,
Markus

requiredif validation challenge

[Clark Kent]

I use Struts 1.1 and tried to add the patch for the requiredif validator in 
validator-rules.xml.  

Following is the code that I added in the validation.xml for the form.  The form has 2 
fields and only one of them can be filled inorder to perform a search.

field property=acctID depends=requiredif, mask
arg0 key=csc.prompt.acctid/
msg name=requiredif key=errors.requiredif/
var
var-namefield[0]/var-name
var-valueuserID/var-value
/var

var
var-namefield-test[0]/var-name
var-valueNULL/var-value
/var
/field



field property=userID depends=requiredif, mask
arg0 key=csc.prompt.userid/
msg name=requiredif key=errors.requiredif/
var
var-namefield[0]/var-name
var-valueacctID/var-value
/var

var
var-namefield-test[0]/var-name
var-valueNULL/var-value
/var 
/field


It seems like inspite of the above, it still doesnt seem to validate requiredif 
validator and proceeds with the submit anyway.  Can someone guide me?

Hi Clark,

The following is similar validation in struts 1.1 final release working fine, for the 
case first  field is necessary when second field is null, otherwise one of the two 
shall be available. Do not bother about additional condition of page attribute of page.
It is just show how to use two fields in required if.
The error your code is in in  var-name 
change from field-test[0] to fieldTest[0] in final release of struts 1.1
can find this in struts validation doc.
Hope this will help

RE: requiredif validation challenge

[Clark Kent]

Hi Udaya,
 
Thanks for the corrections.  
 
I have just found out that I am missing the public static boolean validateRequiredIf( 
) 
in the struts-validator.java class which should contain the java functionality to take 
care of requiredif validator.  So it seems like this patch needs to be added onto the 
class file.

requiredif NULL doesn't seem to work.

[Joe Hertz]

Anyone see anything wrong with this validation.xml snippet?

I have 3 fields on my login page. User Id, Email Address and PW. I want
to allow the user to enter *either* his email address or user id. (okay,
I'm not stopping him from entering both yet.

It seems my attempt to say this field is requiredif the other field is
null doesn't work at all.

Basically, I've decided that this is *not* a job for the validator
framework because it's too complex for a requiredif (which I think is
kinda sad actually. This shouldn't be that tough), but I'm still curious
why the simple case fails.

My next question: Any idea on when Struts 1.2 comes out with
requiredWhen? Apologies if this has been asked before.

Since no one offered an example for requiredIf:

In this case either x_Company OR x_First_Name and x_Last_Name are required,
so x_First_Name AND x_Last_Name are requiredIf x_Company is NULL, and
company is required if either first name OR last name is null.

requiredif don't execute the condition

[Ruben Orta Magan]

Hello.

I've got a problem with the requiredif condition in the struts validator.
I'm using this dtd:

http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/dtds/validator_1_0.dtd

http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/dtds/struts-config_1_1.dtd

The validation rule is:
formset
form name=icytReviForm

field
property=tituloRevista
depends=requiredif
arg0 key=icytReviForm.tituloRevista.displayname/
var
var-namefield[0]/var-name
var-valueaccion/var-value
  /var
  var
var-namefieldTest[0]/var-name
var-valueEQUAL/var-value
  /var
  var
var-namefieldValue[0]/var-name
var-valuealta/var-value
  /var
/field
/form
/formset

accion is a hidden value that it's set when i put a submit button...the form
is

html:form action=/icytReviAction onsubmit=return
validateIcytReviForm(this)

Titulo:/tdtdhtml:text property=tituloRevista size=80/
html:submit value=alta
onclick=javascript:document.forms[0].accion.value='alta';/
html:text property=accion value=alta/

/html:form

When I push the alta submit button the validator don't execute the
requiredif condition and don't validate
my form. Any suggestion about the problem?

Thanks.

It's not in validation-rules.xml so I'd say it's an add-on like

Here are the HTML elements. 1 is a text field, the other is a drop down:

then the dropdown is in a tile for re-usabilty:
html:select property='%= beanName + type %' 
html:option value= key=form.select/
html:option value=home key=form.phone.type.home /
html:option value=work key=form.phone.type.work /

html:option value=sms key=form.phone.type.sms /
html:option value=mobile key=form.phone.type.mobile /
html:option value=pager key=form.phone.type.pager /
/html:select

Is the fact that the form.select option is ?

RE: Problem in validation requiredif in struts 1.1 that worked fine in Struts 1.1 RC1

[Greg Ludington]

The format of the variable names changed before Struts 1.1 final.

In your validator, try replacing your var-names field-test[0] and
field-value[0] with fieldTest[0] and fieldTest[0], respectively.

You can see this format in the example at
http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/userGuide/dev_validator.html

Thank you very much, Greg Ludington
That must be the reason of failure.
But can you advise me whether the validator dtd will be automatically
upgraded/comes with Struts1.1 final or I have to change/configure it or not necessary 
to bother about it i.e there is no relation to it.
Please clarify.

 It looks like you're just trying to make sue that the password field is
 filled in right?  If so, all you need to use is the 'required' validation.
 Just replace requiredif with required, and get rid of the var section.  This
 will make sure a password was entered.
 Is this what you want to do?

RE: how to use requiredif

[Yansheng Lin]

Same sentiment here.

Where is the list of complete variable properties the the var element uses to
pass to the validator?

I was so confused that field-test[0] and fieldTest[0] both seemed to be valid
properties, until I read a tutorial by James Tuner that Change was made between
Beta 1 and RC1, variable names are now camelCase rather than dashed.

It's so hard to find this kind of things if there are not on the Struts
dev-guide page.

RequiredIf Validation with nested

[Arnason, Tamara]

Hi,

I'm trying to use the requiredif validation on fields in a nested
collection and am not having any luck.

Here's the excerpt from the validation.xml
...
form name=/submitFamily_2004
  field
  property=campus indexedListProperty=alumni
depends=requiredif
arg0 key=prompt.family.campus/
var
  var-namefield[0]/var-name
  var-valuefirstname/var-value
/var
var
  var-namefieldTest[0]/var-name
  var-valueNOTNULL/var-value
/var
  /field
/form
...

The jsp shows a collection (say, 2) of alumni beans.  Each alumnus has a
textbox for entering a first name and a textbox for entering a campus.  I
want the campus to be required IF the user enters a value for the first
name.  But, nothing happens.

If I change the validation.xml so that field[0] points to a variable outside
of the nested collection then everything works fine and messages appear
saything that the firstname in the collection is required.

Is there a way to modify the xml so this will work or is the requiredif-type
validation not (yet?) implemented to work with nested collections?

Thanks for the help!
-Tamara

RE: requiredif and *this*

[James Turner]

Requiredif doesn't provide the *this* constant, alas.

Validwhen will, and should be available in 1.1.1/1.2 (whatever we call
the next release), except that I may do another rewrite before release
it, since there's been a lot of suggestions to me to base it on the
Commons EL parser rather than doing a brand new one.

 The new validwhen will provide a *this*
 So that you can easily test if 2 fields are equal.
 Is this available using requiredif?
 
 I saw Raible's article regarding this but it requires 
 creating a custom validator. I'm not opposed to doing this 
 but I don't want to introduce new items for maintenance if it

requiredif - simple example

[Brian McSweeney]

Hi all,
 
The validator package works well for me. 
But I'm trying to use the requiredif and failing.
 
I know there has been previous discussion of this, 
but I'm trying to a simple validation based on a checkbox 
so perhaps someone could tell me where I'm going wrong.
 
For example,
 
I want to validate a creditcard, if a checkbox is checked.
 
I currently am trying to do this as follows:
 
 
  form name=myForm
  field property=creditCard
 depends=requiredif,creditCard
 
  arg0 key=myForm.creditCard/
  arg0
  name=creditCard
key=CreditCard
  resource=false
  /
  arg0
  name=requiredif
key=A Credit-Card is
  resource=false
  /
  var
var-namemyForm.checked/var-name
var-valueon/var-value
  /var
  /field
  /form
 
 
The form name is: myForm
 
The creditcard field is named creditCard
The checkbox field is named checked
 
Note that all other types of validation are working correctly for me.
 
Any help would be SO much appreciated.

Re: requiredif - simple example

[Kevin Robair]

The following worked for me. Note that in RC1, the var-name tag values
are expected to be field-test[n], not fieldTest[n] and so on

The requiredif check was removed because in 1.1RC1, requiredif would break
a javascript validator such as mask. I used custom validation instead.

field property=prop1 depends=mask!-- removed requiredif --

You can also check out the Validator doc on the struts documentation. Just
expand the struts-documentation webapp that comes with your version of
struts, it is under User and Developer Guides.

RE: requiredif - simple example

Hi Kevin,
Thanks for the reply.

I'm a little confused by your example though.
First off - what does the ${4dig} mean?
This won't validate a checkbox, right?

Second, you have a lot of stuff commented out. 
Are these fields getting validated?

Finally, if I wanted to just test against a boolean 
being checked would I do something like the following?

field property=prop1 depends=mask
msg name=requiredif key=app224Form.aForm.prop1.req/
msg name=mask key=app224Form.aForm.prop1.mask/
var
   var-namemask/var-name
   var-value${4dig}/var-value
/var   
var
   var-namefield-checked[0]/var-name
var-valuetrue/var-value
/var

I'm quite confused! Sorry,
Thanks,
Brian

The following worked for me. Note that in RC1, the var-name tag values
are expected to be field-test[n], not fieldTest[n] and so on

The requiredif check was removed because in 1.1RC1, requiredif would
break
a javascript validator such as mask. I used custom validation instead.

field property=prop1 depends=mask!-- removed requiredif --
msg name=requiredif key=app224Form.aForm.prop1.req/

You can also check out the Validator doc on the struts documentation.
Just
expand the struts-documentation webapp that comes with your version of
struts, it is under User and Developer Guides.

 Hi all,
  
 The validator package works well for me. 
 But I'm trying to use the requiredif and failing.
  
 I know there has been previous discussion of this, 
 but I'm trying to a simple validation based on a checkbox 
 so perhaps someone could tell me where I'm going wrong.
  
 For example,
  
 I want to validate a creditcard, if a checkbox is checked.
  
 I currently am trying to do this as follows:
  
  
   form name=myForm
   field property=creditCard
  depends=requiredif,creditCard
  
   arg0 key=myForm.creditCard/
   arg0
   name=creditCard
 key=CreditCard
   resource=false
   /
   arg0
   name=requiredif
 key=A Credit-Card is
   resource=false
   /
   var
 var-namemyForm.checked/var-name
 var-valueon/var-value
   /var
   /field
   /form
  
  
 The form name is: myForm
  
 The creditcard field is named creditCard
 The checkbox field is named checked
  
 Note that all other types of validation are working correctly for me.
  
 Any help would be SO much appreciated.
 Brian

validator requiredif boolean values

[Wilson Chuei]

Hi,

Can somebody pls tell me why the following validation is not firing?
(see xml snippet below)

contact.phoneBHVisible and contact.phoneBHRequired are booleans.

Essentially, what I want to do is that validate only when
contact.phoneBHVisible == true  contact.phoneBHRequired == true


Other fields on the same form are being validating correctly.  No observable
errors from the tomcat's stdout.

(I am using struts-1.1-rc2)

On another note, is it possible to patch 1.1-rc2 with the validwhen
valdator?

TIA,

w.

You can't define empty values in XML like that because the parser removes

Re: requiredif question

[Kevin Robair]

Just a hunch:

For Struts 1.1RC1 , the varnames should be:

field-test[x]
field-join
etc...

In 1.1RC2, they are

fieldTest[n]
fieldJoin  
etc

BTW, I am unsure what you mean by:

  does not seem to operate at all

Are there any errors or exceptions in the log? If the form validates no
matter what you enter, and there are no errors in the log, then it is
possibly a configuration problem. You could try a simpler validation, in
place of this one just to make sure it is doing something. Then, remove
the NOTNULL check, and see if the NOTEQUAL alone works.

 I'm having a similar problem.  All I'm trying to do
 is have a 'required'
 condition for 2 fields of my form.  Mine submits
 just fine when I leave it
 blank as well.  I posted my code here yesterday,

  In 1.1RC2, they are

Help with requiredif validation

[Brian McSweeney]

Hi all,

I'd like to use requiredif to validate some fields as follows:

on my jsp I have a checkbox, eg supplier,

if this checkbox is checked, then I want another field, eg name to be required.
I've tried to set this up in my validation.xml file as follows:

  field property=name
 depends=requiredif

  arg0 key=validateForm.name/
  arg0
  name=requiredif
  key=A name is
  resource=false
  /
  var
var-namevalidateForm.supplier/var-name
var-valuetrue/var-value
  /var

however it doesn't seem to be working at all.
Any ideas?
thanks,
Brian

PS - other fields are being validated correctly.

RE: Help with requiredif validation

[Suresh Babu]

Try this

 arg1
  name=requiredif
  key=A name is
  resource=false
  /

Try adding [0] to the end of the field* vars.

That worked - thanks!  I've hacked together some client-side javascript for

requiredif and null

[John . E . Gregg]

Hi all,
 
I'm doing validation on a form where I have 3 dependent fields.  If any one
is present, they all must be present.  I set-up my validation by saying A
depends on B depends on C depends on A.  I know this worked at one time.
Currently I'm using 1.1 rc1 and previously was using 1.1 b3.  I don't know
when this stopped working.  While stepping though the jsp generation with a
debugger, I can see that value= is being written even when the form values
are null.  The server-side validation then sees empty strings instead of
nulls, so my validation doesn't work.  BaseFieldTag.doStartTag() is
automatically writing empty strings instead of nulls.  Should I take a
completely different approach?
 
thanks

Requiredif and Javascript

[Evan Schnell]

Has anyone ever enabled javascript validation on a form that included a 
requiredif rule?  

Is it correct to assume that this never should be done?

Because field-test is an illegal variable name in javascript it seems 
to me that this is the case.  

It is time for us to fish or cut bait.

Mask validation BUG with requiredif

[Greg Hess]

Hi All, 
 
I have just started using the requiredif validation rule with a field
that is also being validated with a mask rule. The server side
validation is working fine but the client side JavaScript has errors for
my requiredif form fields. 
My form field requires the feild button2URL only if button2Lbl has been
entered and if button2URL it must pass the mask rule. 
 
When I use my mask without the requiredif rule all is well in client
JavaScript the generated method is as follows:
 
function mask () { 
 this.aa = new Array(button2URL, Button 2 URL must contain a
valid URL. For more information click the help icon., new Function
(varName, this.mask=/^http:\\/\\/|^file:\\/\\/|^mailto:[^ ]*$/;
return this[varName];));
} 
 
When the requiredif rule is added and the JavaScript breaks and the
generated method is:
 
function mask () { 
 this.aa = new Array(button2URL, Button 2 URL must contain a
valid URL. For more information click the help icon., new Function
(varName, this.field-test[0]='NOTNULL'; this.field[0]='button2Lbl';
this.mask=/^http:\\/\\/|^file:\\/\\/|^mailto:[^ ]*$/;  return
this[varName];));
} 
 
Below is my validation def for this form:
 
field property=button2Lbl depends=required
 
arg0 key=wbConfigForm.button2Lbl/
 
/field
 
field property=button2URL depends=requiredif,mask
 
msg name=mask key=error.invalidURL/
 
arg0 key=wbConfigForm.button2URL/
 
var
 
var-namemask/var-name
 
var-value^http:\/\/|^file:\/\/|^mailto:[^ ]*$/var-value
 
/var
 
var
 
var-namefield[0]/var-name
 
var-valuebutton2Lbl/var-value
 
/var
 
var
 
var-namefield-test[0]/var-name
 
var-valueNOTNULL/var-value
 
/var 
 
/field
 
/form
 
I have accepted that for now I will create my own static JavaScript for
the form to handle the requirdif fields but I would still like to use
the other rules and their client side validation with my reqiredif
fields. 
 
Many thanks,
 
Greg

validation is working fine but the client side JavaScript has errors for
my requiredif form fields. 
 

I cannot seem to get any client-side validation to work when requiredif 
is turned on.  I wrote my own javascript rule that is supposed to always 
return true.  However mozilla's javascript engine (and presumably IE's 
because both give the same end behavior) will not allow a variable to be 
named field-test or field-join.  

Specifically the bug is in:

this.ae = new Array(lastName, Last Name can not be less than 2 
characters., new Function (varName, this.field[0]='firstName'; 
this.field-test[0]='NOTNULL'; this.minlength=2;  return this[varName];));

The only workaround I can see is to follow advice previously posted on 
this list and not attempt client side requiredif,  Then I can hack 
JavascriptValidatorTag.java to support a new jsType called omit which 
will prevent the variable from being included in the javascript at all.

Regards, Evan.

Validation mask rule JavaScript breaks with requiredif?

[Greg Hess]

Hi All, 
 
I have just started using the requiredif validation rule. The server
side validation is working fine but the client side JavaScript has
errors for my requiredif form fields. 
My form field requires the feild button2URL only if button2Lbl has been
entered and if button2URL it must pass the mask rule. I am by no means a
JavaScript expert but I think I can identify where the problem is. 
 
When I use my mask without the requiredif rule all is well in client
JavaScript the generated method is as follows:
 
function mask () { 
 this.aa = new Array(button2URL, Button 2 URL must contain a
valid URL. For more information click the help icon., new Function
(varName, this.mask=/^http:\\/\\/|^file:\\/\\/|^mailto:[^ ]*$/;
return this[varName];));
} 
 
When the requiredif rule is added and the JavaScript breaks and the
generated method is:
 
function mask () { 
 this.aa = new Array(button2URL, Button 2 URL must contain a
valid URL. For more information click the help icon., new Function
(varName, this.field-test[0]='NOTNULL'; this.field[0]='button2Lbl';
this.mask=/^http:\\/\\/|^file:\\/\\/|^mailto:[^ ]*$/;  return
this[varName];));
} 
 
As the case may be I have probably confiured my validation rule wrong so
below is my validation def for this form:

field property=button2Lbl depends=required

arg0 key=wbConfigForm.button2Lbl/

/field

field property=button2URL depends=requiredif,mask

msg name=mask key=error.invalidURL/

arg0 key=wbConfigForm.button2URL/

var

var-namemask/var-name

var-value^http:\/\/|^file:\/\/|^mailto:[^ ]*$/var-value

/var

var

var-namefield[0]/var-name

var-valuebutton2Lbl/var-value

/var

var

var-namefield-test[0]/var-name

var-valueNOTNULL/var-value

/var 

/field

/form

I have accepted that for now I will create my own static JavaScript for
the form to handle the requirdif fields but I would still like to use
the other rules and their client side validation with my reqiredif
fields. Is there anyway I can achieve this. Even though my server side
validation is ok, I cant publish these pages with JavaScript errors on
form post. So if I cant correct this bug I will have to remove this
fields validation from the validator :-(.

Many thanks,

Greg

 

 

 

Where's the JavaScript validation for requiredif?

[Greg Hess]

Hi All,
 
I really like the new requiredif validation rule with rc1 what a great
addition. I am wondering if there is a reason that it's implementation
has omitted the JavaScript validation method? Is it coming?
 
I have been looking at implementing my own JavaScript method for this
rule but do not know how provide the required Arrays that are being auto
generated to support the JavaScript method defined in
validator-rules.xml.
 
Greg
 
 

RE: Where's the JavaScript validation for requiredif?

[James Turner]

It's missing because (A) I don't claim to be a great Javascript
developer and (B) I frankly think it would be almost impossible to
generate Javascript for it, given how complex it is.  This will be even
more true of the validwhen rule I'm going to introduce in Struts 1.2,
which generalizes all form dependency validations.  So, at least until a
Javascript guru wants to take a crack at it, requiredif is strictly
server-side.

not DynaValidationForm. If that isn't possible could someone explain 
the index example for me. I dont understand the struts-config entries 
especially where in talks about Dependent[].

RE: Validation - requiredif

[Rieberger, Dale]

Ok, it works if I dont use a date field as the field I am trying to check against. So 
if I use to text fields one is required if the other is not null it works, but it 
doesn't work if one field is required if the second field is a date and not null.

Thanks for your help Jeff.

Hey Dale,

Scroll back to yesterday morning, about 9:20 CST, there's
an example posted for Zsolt that worked for him.

[REPOST] [Validator] REQUIREDIF Question

[Jerry Jalenak]

I'm reposting this in the hope that someone can tell what I'm doing wrong.
I can't seem to figure out why this doesn't work.  Any (and all) help is
greatly appreciated

I have a rather simple form with 4 fields on it.  If the first field
(patientId) is left blank, then the other three fields (lastName, firstName,
dob) are required.  So, in struts-config I have

snip
form-bean name=UserInfo
type=org.apache.struts.validator.DynaValidatorForm
form-property name=lastName
type=java.lang.String/
form-property name=firstName
type=java.lang.String/
form-property name=dob
type=java.lang.String/
form-property name=patientId
type=java.lang.String/
/form-bean
/snip

and in my validator-rules I am using

snip

The REQUIREDIF check does not seem to be working as the validation is passed
successfully.  I suspect it has something to do with the form property being
a String, but being checked against a NULL in validator.  I checked the
validator docs and this appears to be the correct way of doing this.  Am I
just missing something obvious?

TIA!

Nothing out of the ordinary jumps out from what you have sent.  That being said, 
following are a few points; a list which you have probably already checked and 
double-checked:

* Have you set the validator plug-in element in the 
  struts-config?
* Is the name of the form-bean in the action mapping also
  UserInfo?
* Have you ensured that the requiredIf logic is being invoked
  at all?  You could test this by say, changing the logic 
  (just for test purposes).  For example, change the NULL 
  criterion to some dummy string literal.  Then actually enter 
  that literal on the JSP and see if the requiredif logic 
  is triggered

RE: [REPOST] [Validator] REQUIREDIF Question

[Jerry Jalenak]

Sri - thanks for the reply.  We have several other validations going on with
this form-bean, so I'm confident that your first two items are OK.  I've
also pulled the 'REQUIREDIF' check out of the validation in question
(leaving just the MASK) and everything behaves correctly.  I've also been
over the validator docs countless times, and have verified that the general
approach matches what is in the doc.  The only thing I can come up with is
that the MASK processing is screwing things up some way

I'm about to a point of writing a custom validation routine just to get by
this, but would sure like to use the REQUIREDIF

 The only thing I can come up with is that the MASK 
 processing is screwing things up some way
 

One way to confirm that would be to remove the mask test.

RE: [REPOST] [Validator] REQUIREDIF Question

[James Turner]

The problem, sir, lies not in your requiredif, but in your mask.

When you say:

var-value^[A-Za-z -']+$/var-value

What you're literally saying is A to Z, a to z, and space to '.  What
you want to say is:

var-value^[A-Za-z\ \-\']+$/var-value

When I used the correct mask, everything worked correctly. (i.e., if
patientId was blank, the other three fields were required and had to
obey the mask.  If patientId was not black, the other three could be.)

RE: [REPOST] [Validator] REQUIREDIF Question

[Jerry Jalenak]

James,

You, sir, are wy wiser in the use of regular expressions than I hope to
ever be. The whole escape this, don't escape that thing continues to
confound me.  Anyway, I've updated my validator.xml with the changes to the
mask, and it appears to be working (i.e. it returns to the original input
form).  However, I am not getting any messages displayed via my
html:errors/ tag.  I've checked and the default validator messages are in
my ApplicationResources.properties, and have verified that it is being
loaded (at least according to the Tomcat console log).  Has something
changed in how messages are rendered recently?  I'm using the nightly build
from Feb. 10, 2003   Any ideas?

TIA!

Jerry

[Validator] REQUIREDIF Question

[Jerry Jalenak]

Hi All,

I have a rather simple form with 4 fields on it.  If the first field
(patientId) is left blank, then the other three fields (lastName, firstName,
dob) are required.  So, in struts-config I have

snip
form-bean name=UserInfo
type=org.apache.struts.validator.DynaValidatorForm
form-property name=lastName
type=java.lang.String/
form-property name=firstName
type=java.lang.String/
form-property name=dob
type=java.lang.String/
form-property name=patientId
type=java.lang.String/
/form-bean
/snip

and in my validator-rules I am using

snip
formset
form name=UserInfo
field property=patientId depends=mask
msg name=mask key=errors.field.invalid
/
arg0 key=UserInfo.patientId.displayname
/
var
var-namemask/var-name
var-value^[0-9]+$/var-value
/var
/field
field property=lastName depends=requiredif,
mask

The REQUIREDIF check does not seem to be working as the validation is passed
successfully.  I suspect it has something to do with the form property being
a String, but being checked against a NULL in validator.  I checked the
validator docs and this appears to be the correct way of doing this.  Am I
just missing something obvious?

TIA!

[Dinesh Samson J]

Greetings,

My required if condition in validation.xml is not working.

The following is the code in my validation.xml file.

field property=lastName depends=requiredif
arg0 key=label.lastName/
var
var-namefield/var-name
var-valuefirstName/var-value
/var
var
var-namefield-test/var-name
var-valueNOTNULL/var-value
/var
/field

My condition is:
lastName should be present, if firstName is entered.

The validator throws up the message lastName is required, for both the
conditions;
whether the field firstName is empty or some text is inputted.

Is anything wrong in what I am doing?
Can anyone help me?


Thank in Advance,
 
Dinesh Samson J

[Weber, Jeremy]

I had a ton of problems with required if.  I finally just ripped it out and
made my own based on it.  In the code I am using, (I am unsure its b2/b3 or
a tip build at this point) I dont see a NOTEQUAL comparison

Heres what I am using  See inline comments for explanation.

System.out.println(PROPERTY:  + field.getProperty());

}
if (fieldJoin.equalsIgnoreCase(AND)) {

}
while (!GenericValidator.isBlankOrNull(field.getVarValue(field[ +
i + ]))) {
String dependProp = field.getVarValue(field[ + i + ]);
String dependTest = field.getVarValue(field-test[ + i + ]);
String dependTestValue = field.getVarValue(field-value[ + i +
]);
String dependIndexed = field.getVarValue(field-indexed[ + i +

System.out.println(DEPEND PROP:  + dependProp);
System.out.println(DEPEND Test:  + dependTest);
System.out.println(DEPEND TEST VALUE:  + dependTestValue);

Well, short of implementing a full boolean expression language inside
Validator, it was the best I could do.  Maybe I'll write a simple parser
for Validator 1.1 so you could say:
var
   var-nametest/var-name
   var-value((prospect == null)  (prospectNameOrId != null) 
(action != Add Prospect))/var-value
/var

Of course, since requiredif is just a rule in the sample apps, anyone
else could write it too.

RE: [VALIDATOR] requiredif ??

[Sri Sankaran]

I suppose that is an acceptable price to pay for being to declaratively define 
validations.

I am hoping to take advantage of requiredif to stop validator from validating upon the 
first error encountered -- of course it works only where one is testing the 'required' 
rule.

Re: [VALIDATOR] requiredif ??

[Matthew Meyer]

Is there any reason that none of the books, or docs 
discuss writeing javascript pluggable validators. I wrote 
my own xorDependency pluggable javascript validator, one 
field or the other field required but not both. It takes 
one var named secondField that tells it the other field in 
the ValidatorForm to check.
I also wrote a andDependancy, that check to that a second 
and an optional third field are exist, if any one othe the 
three exist nice for things like optional three field 
phone numbers. Takes one var named secondField and an 
optional var thirdField.

No, it doesn't.  It's as if that rule isn't even there-- if there is no
prospect, and there is a prospect name, even if the address is blank, it
passes validation and goes to the next step.

What about the action != Add Prospect part, have I done that right?  I'm
trying to compare the value of the action parameter (it's a hidden field on
the form) to the literal String Add Prospect.  (While we're at it, any

Are all of the rules (the field tags) totally separate?  I mean, there's
no chance one of the other field tags is affecting this one, right?

Also, the example in the docs uses indexed properties, which I have never
worked with.  Am I correct that the [] square brackets in my val tags only
have to do with multiple conditions and have nothing to do with indexed
properties?

You're correct, they're for identifying separate clauses in the

Yes.  I have some simple validations like: 
   field  property=newEmailAddress
depends=email 
arg0 key=label.additional.email/
   /field
and
   fieldproperty=date
   depends=required,date
 arg0 key=label.contact.date/
 var
   var-namedatePatternStrict/var-name
   var-valueMM/dd//var-value
 /var
   /field
on the same form that are working fine.

 String Add Prospect.  (While we're at it, any chance of

 That's how it's supposed to work...

Which?  Literal value, or should I be specifying a key to something in
.properties?  The example was checking something equal to true so I wasn't
sure.

In any event... I actually need !action.startsWith(Add); which I don't
think is going to be possible with the Validator as-is.  It looks like you
can write your own, but I'm not familiar enough yet with how everything
works.  I ended up overriding validate()in my form, calling
super.validate(), and adding this:

if (prospect == null  .equals(address)  !action.startsWith(Add) ) {
   if (errors == null) {
  errors = new ActionErrors();
   }
   errors.add(address, new ActionError(error.prospect.address.required)
);
}

But I still don't see a reason why what I had in the xml file would not
work.

Well, short of implementing a full boolean expression language inside
Validator, it was the best I could do.  Maybe I'll write a simple parser
for Validator 1.1 so you could say:
var
   var-nametest/var-name
   var-value((prospect == null)  (prospectNameOrId != null) 
(action != Add Prospect))/var-value
/var

Of course, since requiredif is just a rule in the sample apps, anyone
else could write it too.

Yes, except that Validator, which is a Commons project, would then be

A way to deal with that might be to look at commons-jexl, which implements
a superset of the JSTL EL language.  It's what Jelly uses for expression

Where to send bugs/fixes (RequiredIf Equals Condition)

Where should I send bugs or fixes with common validator.  Specifically the
EQUAL condition in RequiredIf doesnt seem to do anything.  

if (dependTest.equals(FIELD_TEST_EQUAL)) {
this_required = dependTestValue.equalsIgnoreCase(dependVal);
}



Making it so, actually does the comparison

this_required = dependTestValue.equalsIgnoreCase(dependVal);

RE: RequiredIf Example Request

[Weber, Jeremy]

Sorry I am not following you. I am trying to to use the 'requiredif'
validation not 'required' validation.  I dont have xml defining the field.
Just what I had posted in the previous message to illustrate my problem.  I
am currently looking at the code of requiredif to see if its functioning
properly.

You say to use required, mycheck.  But I cant require the field.  I need to
require it conditionally based on another field in the form.  That is why I
want to use requiredif.  Based on whether a field is true or false, validate
some other fields, kind of thing...

As for as the code for RequiredIf, it doesnt seem to me to handle EQUALS
well.  

boolean required = false;

...
...
...
if (dependTest.equals(FIELD_TEST_EQUAL)) {
this_required =
dependTestValue.equalsIgnoreCase(dependVal);
}
...
...

if (required) {
if ((value != null)  (value.length()  0)) {
return true;
} else {
errors.add(field.getKey(), Resources.getActionError(request,
va, field));
return false;
}
}
}
No where does it seem to compare the xml value and the value on the actual
form.




If you have any other suggestions or can clarify, please do...

I just barely ran into this problem.  Seems that all the field checks
are run.  Checking the Validator example (TowFieldCheck) in the struts
docs (1.1b3), It seems that if the value is null, you should let it pass
as accepted.

The xml defining the field is the one that should specify that the field
is required.  id: required,mycheck

Then it becomes possible to have an optional field.

 If you're just requesting an example of something, here's what I'm currently
 using:
 
   field property=studentId

 msg name=requiredif key=errors.msg.studentIDorNameRequired/
 msg name=integer key=errors.msg.invalidStudentID/

 /var
 var
   var-namefield-test[0]/var-name
   var-valueNULL/var-value
 /var
   /field
 
 This makes studentId required if lastName is NULL.  If I also wanted to add
 a requirement to make studentId required if firstName was null, I'd add the
 following to the above:
 
 var
   var-namefield[1]/var-name
   var-valuelastName/var-value
 /var
 var
   var-namefield-test[1]/var-name
   var-valueNULL/var-value
 /var
 
 The conditions you can have are NULL, NOTNULL, and EQUAL.
 
 I haven't used this with checkboxes yet, but I think you'd probably have
 each of your three fields use requiredif, and use something like the
 following to make it depend on the checkbox:
 
 var
   var-namefield[0]/var-name
   var-valuecheckboxFieldName/var-value
 /var
 var
   var-namefield-test[0]/var-name
   var-valueNOTNULL/var-value
 /var
 
 The fact that the example was using indicies screwed me up for a while too
 until I took a look at the source code for FieldChecks.

RequiredIf Example Request

[Weber, Jeremy]

I requested this before and have not recieved a response...:(  Any takers
out there?  Currently I am having a heck of time figuring out how to make
this work...  

I have checked out all the online examples, but I am unclear as to what this
stuff means...

If you have this in your struts-config.xml...

form-bean
name=dependentlistForm
type=org.apache.struts.webapp.validator.forms.ValidatorForm
form-property
name=dependents
type=org.apache.struts.webapp.validator.Dependent[]
initial={'','','','','','','','','','',''}/
form-property
name=insureDependents
type=java.lang.Boolean
initial=false/
/form-bean

My form properties look like...

form-bean name=InstallConfigurationFormBean
type=com.vendorsite.install.beans.InstallConfigurationFormBean/


So I am missing the type and initial fields.  Can anybody help me see the
light?  I need a checkbox to control whether or not 3 addiotional text
fields are required.

Thanks,

Jeremy Weber

I'm not sure exists is a standard validation rule.  Did you define it yourself?

Yes, but I would think that it would only be run after the first validation
(the requiredif) runs.  Is that not a correct assumption?  Do I need to add
anything to the exists validation to make it so?  In your example if the
requiredif fails, does it still try to run the next validations?
