Method Detail

supports

public boolean supports(java.lang.Class clazz)

Specified by:

supports in interface org.springframework.validation.Validator

validate

public void validate(java.lang.Object obj,
            org.springframework.validation.Errors errors,
            boolean cascade)

Description copied from interface: CascadingValidator

An extended version of the validate(errors,obj) method that takes an additional argument specifying whether the Validator should cascade into associations or not.

Specified by:

validate in interface CascadingValidator

Parameters:

obj - The Object to validate

errors - The Spring Errors instance

cascade - True if validation should cascade into associations

See Also:

CascadingValidator.validate(Object, org.springframework.validation.Errors, boolean)

postValidate

protected void postValidate(java.lang.Object obj,
                org.springframework.validation.Errors errors)

Subclasses can overrite to provide custom handling of the errors object post validation.

Parameters:

obj - The object to validate

errors - The Errors object

validate

public void validate(java.lang.Object obj,
            org.springframework.validation.Errors errors)

Specified by:

validate in interface org.springframework.validation.Validator

See Also:

Validator.validate(Object, org.springframework.validation.Errors)

cascadeToAssociativeProperty

protected void cascadeToAssociativeProperty(org.springframework.validation.Errors errors,
                                org.springframework.beans.BeanWrapper bean,
                                org.codehaus.groovy.grails.commons.GrailsDomainClassProperty persistentProperty)

Cascades validation onto an associative property maybe a one-to-many, one-to-one or many-to-one relationship.

Parameters:

errors - The Errors instnace

bean - The original bean

persistentProperty - The associative property

cascadeValidationToMany

protected void cascadeValidationToMany(org.springframework.validation.Errors errors,
                           org.springframework.beans.BeanWrapper bean,
                           org.codehaus.groovy.grails.commons.GrailsDomainClassProperty persistentProperty,
                           java.lang.String propertyName)

Cascades validation to a one-to-many type relationship. Normally a collection such as a List or Set each element in the association will also be validated.

Parameters:

errors - The Errors instance

bean - The original BeanWrapper

persistentProperty - An association whose isOneToMeny() method returns true

propertyName - The name of the property

cascadeValidationToOne

protected void cascadeValidationToOne(org.springframework.validation.Errors errors,
                          org.springframework.beans.BeanWrapper bean,
