Thanks Christophe - that should be enough to get me going. I don't think @DataType would cover my scenario - I am using the same custom component to render a type in multiple classes to allow transparent retrieval from a db depending on some user setting - the type makes the selection of data to display transparent to the user / developer, but can vary greatly in length across different consumers.

Are you constraints dynamic ? Anayway, have you looked at the PropertyAccess service that gives you all information on object properties including their annotations through the AnnotationProvider interface. I guess that combining some tweaks in beanblocksource overrides and property analysis, you should achieve your goal. 2010/6/22 Jim O'Callaghan <jc1000...@yahoo.co.uk> > Christophe, > > I'm trying to render a multiline textarea for input if the minlenght or > maxlenght specified in an @validate annotation is over n, otherwise a text > field, to save having to use t:parameter in my templates, where the size of > a field is a good indicator of what control would be most useful. > > -----Original Message----- > From: Christophe Cordenier [mailto:christophe.corden...@gmail.com] > Sent: 22 June 2010 07:29 > To: Tapestry users > Subject: Re: Access validation constraints within custom component > > Hi > > 2010/6/21 Jim O'Callaghan <j...@peritussolutions.com> > > > Is there a way to access validation constraints within custom components? > > Ex. min length / max length specified using the @Validate annotation on > > fields?
