That looks like it should work to me. I started with maxlength and created
my own "length" function. The only difference I see is that I use "key,
name, resource" and you're using "name, key, resource." [And yes, my mask
validator is probably redundant.]
<field
property="socialSecurityNumberA"
depends="required,length,positiveNumber,mask">
<msg name="length" key="errors.lengthDigits"/>
<arg0 key="label.socialSecurityNumberA" resource="true"/>
<arg1 key="${var:length}" name="length" resource="false"/>
<var>
<var-name>length</var-name>
<var-value>3</var-value>
</var>
<var>
<var-name>mask</var-name>
<var-value>^[0-9][0-9][0-9]$</var-value>
</var>
</field>

Since his output was "null can not be greater than 2000 characters.", that
would simply create "2000 can not be greater than 2000 characters."
