Hm... I just downloaded the examples from http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/jakarta-commons/validator/src/example/org/ apache/commons/validator/example/
But I get compilation errors, since "The constructor ValidatorResources(InputStream) is undefined". According to the Manifest.mf file in the JAR, I'm using 1.0.2. Isn't this the latest version?
