Does anyone know where I can go to get a tutorial on how to set up commons validator for an app?
It would be much appreciated if I can get a sample app that goes along with a step by step tutorial. I have been to this site and look around everywhere but wasn't not successful in learning commons validator. http://commons.apache.org/validator/ I tried following the setup guide in the faqs section but it request me to create a ValidatorForm or DynaActionForm but does not show me how to create one. It also mention to insert the following codes but does not tell me under what xml node. <!-- sets up Validator --> <plug-in className="org.apache.struts.validator.ValidatorPlugIn"> <set-property property="pathnames" value="/WEB-INF/validator-rules.xml,/WEB-INF/validation.xml"/> </plug-in> I assume it goes before the <struts-config> but am not sure. I also tried to follow the example of bank.war. I place it in my tomcat and am running it but can't get past the login page as I don't know the default username/password. This example also does not seem to be using a validation.xml to define its validation. Does anyone know of a book/website that can teach a step by step on getting commons validator for an app?
