RE: struts validator

Thanks -- so I got started working with the DefaultModelValidator,
here's the metadata for a model I have using it:

@model.model
  name="testeng.getcase"
  id="testeng.getcase"
  logger="testeng"
@model.parameter
  name="caseid"
  required="true"
  type="java.lang.String"
  pattern="CASE[0-9]{8}"
@model.validation-error
  model="testeng.prompt-getcase"
  params="true"

And I got it to work but I found a couple of bugs along the way. (These
are in both 2.1-dev and CVS HEAD):

1) The redirect to the validation-error model code is always executed.
(meaning even if your input is valid you get redirected) 
2) But if validation-error params=false, the redirect command is not
returned. (meaning if you have params=false the redirect never happens
at all)

I was able to fix both of these in my code and it's working fine. I'd be
happy to submit a patch if you want. The only problem I'm still having
is the errors aren't being displayed after redirect when the pattern
wasn't matched (using the keel:errors tag). I'd appreciate any ideas on
that.

Regards,
Lou

Lou:

Just wanted to let you know there's now a start on documentation for the
Validation service. Have a look at the Keel manual (HEAD version), in
the "Default Model Service" chapter. It needs more, but I think there's
enough to get the general idea!
