Update:
I have changed a few things in my copy of the code.
I renamed the Captcha interface CaptchaVerifier because it is
a component for verifying captchas of a certain type, not
an individual captcha puzzle.
I also named the id which is gotten from the request "userId" because
it may be generated on a per-captcha basis and passed by a parameter
depending on jcaptcha settings.
>From velocity the commands look like:
#set($cv = $captchaservice.getCaptchaVerifier("defaultImageCaptcha"))
#set($userId = $cv.getUserId($request))
#if($cv.isAnswerCorrect($userId, $answer))
## Do whatever the captcha is protecting
#else
## Show captcha image and ask for answer, submit button redirects to
## same page with answer given as parameter.
#end
isAnswerCorrect throws Exception but in Velocity getCaptchaVerifier
returns a wrapper of the CaptchaVerifier which catches any Exception
and returns false. It also switches null for "" in getUserId.
I have tried to build JCaptcha 2.0 from source but I am unable to as
I use jdk 1.6 which fails with warnings for including com.sun.* classes
Any ideas about what these functions should be named would be great:
getUserId
getCaptchaVerifier
Thanks,
Caleb
