Hi,
I am using the Struts Validator(Commons Validator) outside the Struts
framework, to do validation.
I would like to know how to validate an object when it has objects nested
within it, and I need to
validate the fields in those nested objects, too.
Precisely I intend to achieve the following. A pseudo code of my requirement.
I am passing object of class X to the validator., as shown below
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Class X{
String a;
String b;
Y obj;
}
Class Y{
String i;
String j;
Z obj;
}
Class Z{
String k;
}
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
I am trying to validate an object of class X, and I need to validate the
enclosed object of Class Y,
and the object of class Z further encapsulated in Y.
Is it doable using the existing Validator framework. Is there a way to specify
this kind of
nested validation in the "validation-rules.xml" ( configuration file used by
validator )
If yes can anyone give me a pointer on the same.
Regards,
Ashutosh
