I would like to know the answer on this too. I searched the Net, all examples use properties from property file. Using resource="false" does not help with either (neither?) of these variants:
<arg0 key="nestedUser.fromAddress" resource="false"/> <arg0 key="${nestedUser.fromAddress}" resource="false"/> <arg0 key="registrationForm.nestedUser.fromAddress" resource="false"/> <arg0 key="${registrationForm.nestedUser.fromAddress}" resource="false"/> where registrationForm is action form definition in struts-config.xml, nestedUser is a nested BO. Originating mail address is rendered in HTML and submitted back to application as "nestedUser.fromAddress". Commons Validator does not process HttpServletRequest (that is expected). I glanced at ValidatorForm from Struts Validator integration, and saw this validate() method: public ActionErrors validate(ActionMapping mapping, HttpServletRequest request) { ServletContext application = getServlet().getServletContext(); ActionErrors errors = new ActionErrors(); String validationKey = getValidationKey(mapping, request); Validator validator = Resources.initValidator(validationKey, this, application, request, errors, page); try { validatorResults = validator.validate(); } catch (ValidatorException e) { log.error(e.getMessage(), e); } return errors; } So, maybe you want to debug this one. Commons Validator basically does not have documentation, only Javadocs, which is not very descriptive. No comments in the source, either. This is frustrating. Michael.
