Hi, I have Struts 1.2.7 application and I need to write custom validator for my form. I've wrote struts tutorial at http://struts.apache.org/1.2.7/userGuide/dev_validator.html and have tried to do the same. But my validator is not working. Here is my class method :public class GroupIdValidator { public static boolean checkGroupId(Object bean, Field field, HttpServletRequest request) { return false; } as you can see it's just the test method, than always returns FALSE. And here is my validation-rules.xml : <validator name="uniqueGroupId" classname="com.mysite.validators.GroupIdValidator" method="checkGroupId" msg="errors.groupid.unique" methodParams="java.lang.Object, org.apache.commons.validator.Field, javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest" depends="required" /> and validation.xml for my form : <form name="addGroupForm"> <field property="id" depends="required,mask,uniqueGroupId"> <arg0 key="formGroup.groupName"/> <msg name="mask" key="errors.mask" /> <arg1 key="mask.devicegroupid" resource="true"/> <var> <var-name>mask</var-name> <var-value>^[a-zA-Z0-9_]*$</var-value> </var> </field> Every thing looks great, but when I submit my form it passes validation (when uniqueGroupId always return false)! It seems like my validator returns true. The strange thing is that my validation method calls and works normaly and it should always fail field validation. What is wrong with my custom pluggable validator?
Do you have the standard validation working correctly? I.e. if you remove uniqueGroupId are the required and mask validators applied correctly? Have you confirmed that your custom validation method gets called? What happens if you have it add a validation error message as well as return false?
