Constructor Details

AbstractValidatorModelHandler

public AbstractValidatorModelHandler(ValidatorReceiver receiver)

Method Details

setName

@Attribute("name")
public final void setName(String name)

setNegate

@Attribute("negate")
public final void setNegate(Boolean negate)

If the result shall be negated. This way a validator can be turned around: - "empty" → !empty - number range 5-10 → NOT 5-10 (including) - regex "foo" → must fail - ...

setContinue

@Attribute("continue")
public final void setContinue(Boolean doContinue)

If the next validator shall continue if this one fails.

setLevel

@Attribute("level")
public final void setLevel(String level)
                    throws ModelBuildException

The error level.

Throws:

ModelBuildException

setRunOn

@Attribute("run-on")
public final void setRunOn(String runOn)
                    throws ModelBuildException

Where to run the validator.

Throws:

ModelBuildException

finish

@EndElement
public final void finish()
                  throws ModelBuildException

Assembles the component together.

Throws:

ModelBuildException

createValidator

protected final T createValidator()
                           throws ModelBuildException,
IllegalArgumentException

Returns an (instrumented) instance of the validator implementation.

Throws:

ModelBuildException

IllegalArgumentException

getImplClass

protected abstract Class<? extends T> getImplClass()

A concrete class which implments AbstractValidatorModelHandler. Expects a public-constructor which takes the Validatable.

Returns:

the class

getInterface

protected abstract Class<T> getInterface()

Return the Interface which represents this validator. This interface is normally AbstractValidatorModelHandler

Returns:

interface-class

beforeFinish

protected abstract void beforeFinish()
                              throws ModelBuildException

Will be called before running the finish()-Method. It is a good place for validating properties read from xml since all is read at this point.

Throws:

ModelBuildException

afterFinish

protected abstract void afterFinish()
                             throws ModelBuildException

Will be called after running the finish()-Method. The validator object is ready now, so it's the place to assign validator-specific properties read from xml to it.

Throws:

ModelBuildException
