Hi all... I've been working with DynaValidatorForms for automated conversion of form values to typed values (String, Integer, Date) in my data objects, and found these features really useful. Then I tried to use server-side validation on suc
h a form and came into trouble with Dates: First, the ActionForm is populated from the request, then the Validator is invoked to validate the properties stored in that ActionForm (see RequestProcessor>>process()). That means that the Converters try to parse the form values (e.g. the date) before the Validator is asked and throw ConversionExceptions if a value has not an appropriate format.-( Is there a clue I have missed or is that a systematic problem? How about tying conversion and validation closer together? - The form values get validated before conversion. - The conversion could use validator cofiguration (like the datePattern), or vice verse. - A ConversionExceptions could be seen as a failed validation.
