Hi,
I have created a validator called "SameValueValidator", this worked both
client-side and server side, this was for struts2.0.x so I don't know
how will work with the latest struts (and if it works with annotations).
If You are interested here it is:
SameValueValidator.java:
--------------------------
public class SameValueValidator extends FieldValidatorSupport
{
private String otherField;
@Override
public void validate(Object object) throws ValidationException
{
String fieldName = getFieldName();
String val = (String) getFieldValue(fieldName, object);
if (val == null || val.length() <= 0) {
// use a required validator for these
return;
}
String otherVal=(String) getFieldValue(otherField, object);
if(!val.equals(otherVal))
{
addFieldError(fieldName, object);
}
}
public String getOtherField()
{
return otherField;
}
public void setOtherField(String otherField)
{
this.otherField = otherField;
}
}
--------------------------
How to use it in xml:
<field name="password2">
<field-validator type="samevalue" >
<param name="otherField">login.userPasswd</param>
<message key="error.passwordmatch" />
</field-validator>
</field>
Add it as Validator is validators.xml:
<validator name="samevalue"
class="yourpackage.validators.SameValueValidator"/>
Changes required for client-side validation (javascript):
file: template\xhtml\form-close-validate.ftl:
(there are a bunch of elseifs, add this at the end):
-----------------------------------------
<#elseif validator.validatorType = "samevalue">
if (field.value != null) {
var otherField=form.elements['${validator.otherField}'];
if (field.value!=otherField.value) {
addError(field, error);
errors = true;
}
}
</#if>
-----------------------------------------
Regards,
Andras.

Hello,
Is there something out of the box that will let me validate if two
fields match in struts2? An example would be a form with email and
confirmingEmail fields.
Thanks,
James
