Hi. In my lift application using Mapper, I'm doing this all the time:

object name extends MappedPoliteString(this, 16) {
  override def validations = Validate.notEmpty(this) _ ::
super.validations
}

where Validate is defined:

object Validate  {
  val valid = List[FieldError]()
  def notEmpty(fi: FieldIdentifier)(field: String) = {
    if (field.length == 0)
      List(FieldError(fi, Text("Field cannot be empty")))
    else
      valid
}

This code works, but is a bit verbose, especially when there are 10 or
more strings in a class. I guess I could define a new class
MappedPoliteNonEmptyString, but are there other (better) alternatives?
