I am having trouble figuring out how to add a custom validation rule to
a form. This is my form bean in the pageflow:
@SuppressWarnings("serial")
@Jpf.FormBean
public static class MyFormBean implements Serializable {
private String to;
private String from;
public MyFormBean() {
}
@Jpf.ValidatableProperty(displayName = "To Date",
validateRequired = @Jpf.ValidateRequired(), validateDate =
@Jpf.ValidateDate(pattern = "MM/dd/yyyy"))
public String getTo() {
return to;
}
public void setTo(String to) {
this.to = to;
}
@Jpf.ValidatableProperty(displayName = "From Date",
validateRequired = @Jpf.ValidateRequired(), validateDate =
@Jpf.ValidateDate(pattern = "MM/dd/yyyy"))
public String getFrom() {
return from;
}
public void setFrom(String from) {
this.from = from;
}
}
It is successfully checking that the dates are passed in and in the
correct format, but now I want to make sure that the "from date" is
before the "to date". What is the most correct way to do this? Should
I use the "Jpf.ValidateCustomRule
<http://beehive.apache.org/docs/1.0/apidocs/classref_netui/org/apache/be
ehive/netui/pageflow/annotations/Jpf.ValidateCustomRule.html> "
annotation, and if so, on which property (seen as how this validation
rule involves two properties)?
