Class GenericTypeValidator
java.lang.Objectorg.apache.commons.validator.GenericTypeValidator
- java.io.Serializable
public class GenericTypeValidator
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.io.Serializable
This class contains basic methods for performing validations that return the
correctly typed class based on the validation performed.
- Serialized Form
static java.lang.Byte | formatByte(java.lang.String value)- Checks if the value can safely be converted to a byte primitive.
|
static java.lang.Long | formatCreditCard(java.lang.String value)- Checks if the field is a valid credit card number.
|
static java.util.Date | formatDate(java.lang.String value, java.lang.String datePattern, boolean strict)- Checks if the field is a valid date.
|
static java.util.Date | formatDate(java.lang.String value, java.util.Locale locale)- Checks if the field is a valid date.
|
static java.lang.Double | formatDouble(java.lang.String value)- Checks if the value can safely be converted to a double primitive.
|
static java.lang.Float | formatFloat(java.lang.String value)- Checks if the value can safely be converted to a float primitive.
|
static java.lang.Integer | formatInt(java.lang.String value)- Checks if the value can safely be converted to a int primitive.
|
static java.lang.Long | formatLong(java.lang.String value)- Checks if the value can safely be converted to a long primitive.
|

formatByte
public static java.lang.Byte formatByte(java.lang.String value)
Checks if the value can safely be converted to a byte primitive.
value - The value validation is being performed on.
formatCreditCard
public static java.lang.Long formatCreditCard(java.lang.String value)
Checks if the field is a valid credit card number.
Reference Sean M. Burke's
script.
value - The value validation is being performed on.
formatDate
public static java.util.Date formatDate(java.lang.String value,
java.lang.String datePattern,
boolean strict) Checks if the field is a valid date. The pattern is used with
java.text.SimpleDateFormat. If strict is true, then the
length will be checked so '2/12/1999' will not pass validation with
the format 'MM/dd/yyyy' because the month isn't two digits.
The setLenient method is set to false for all.
value - The value validation is being performed on.datePattern - The pattern passed to SimpleDateFormat.strict - Whether or not to have an exact match of the datePattern.
formatDate
public static java.util.Date formatDate(java.lang.String value,
java.util.Locale locale) Checks if the field is a valid date. The Locale is
used with java.text.DateFormat. The setLenient method
is set to false for all.
value - The value validation is being performed on.locale - The Locale to use to parse the date (system default if null)
formatDouble
public static java.lang.Double formatDouble(java.lang.String value)
Checks if the value can safely be converted to a double primitive.
value - The value validation is being performed on.
formatFloat
public static java.lang.Float formatFloat(java.lang.String value)
Checks if the value can safely be converted to a float primitive.
value - The value validation is being performed on.
formatInt
public static java.lang.Integer formatInt(java.lang.String value)
Checks if the value can safely be converted to a int primitive.
value - The value validation is being performed on.
formatLong
public static java.lang.Long formatLong(java.lang.String value)
Checks if the value can safely be converted to a long primitive.
value - The value validation is being performed on.
formatShort
public static java.lang.Short formatShort(java.lang.String value)
Checks if the value can safely be converted to a short primitive.
value - The value validation is being performed on.
