io.guise.framework.validator.AbstractComparableRangeValidator<V>

Type Parameters:

V - The value type this validator supports.

All Implemented Interfaces:

com.globalmentor.beans.PropertyBindable, com.globalmentor.beans.PropertyConstrainable, RangeValidator<V>, Validator<V>

Direct Known Subclasses:

DateRangeValidator, DecimalRangeValidator, IntegerRangeValidator, LongRangeValidator

public abstract class AbstractComparableRangeValidator<V extends Comparable<V>>
extends AbstractRangeValidator<V>

An abstract implementation of a range validator that handles comparable values. The step value is considered relative either to the minimum value, if available, the maximum value, if available, or zero, in that order or priority.

Constructor Details

AbstractComparableRangeValidator

public AbstractComparableRangeValidator(V minimum,
 V maximum,
 V step,
 boolean valueRequired)

Minimum, maximum, step, and value required constructor.

Parameters:

minimum - The minimum value, inclusive, or null if the range has no lower bound.

maximum - The maximum value, inclusive, or null if the range has no upper bound.

step - The step amount, or null if the range has no increment value specified.

valueRequired - Whether the value must be non-null in order to be considered valid.

Method Details

validate

public void validate(V value)
              throws ValidationException

Checks whether a given value is valid, and throws an exception if not.

The message of the thrown exception should be appropriate for display to the user, although it may include string resource references. If a child class has no specific message to return, that class may call AbstractValidator.throwInvalidValueValidationException(Object) as a convenience. A child class may also call AbstractValidator.throwValueRequiredValidationException(Object) as a convenience, but this is usually not required if this version of the method, which provides a missing value check, is called first.

This version checks whether a value is provided if values are required. Child classes should call this version as a convenience for checking non- null and required status.

Adding new validation logic always requires overriding this method. Although Validator.isValid(Object) may be overridden to provide optimized fast-fail determinations, adding new logic to Validator.isValid(Object) cannot be used in place of overriding this method.

Adding new validation logic always requires overriding this method. Although AbstractValidator.isValid(Object) may be overridden to provide optimized fast-fail determinations, adding new logic to AbstractValidator.isValid(Object) cannot be used in place of overriding this method.

This version checks for minimum and maximum compliance, and delegates to isValidStep(Comparable, Comparable, Comparable) for checking step compliance. Child classes will normally not override this class and instead merely implement isValidStep(Comparable, Comparable, Comparable).

Specified by:

validate in interface Validator<V extends Comparable<V>>

Overrides:

validate in class AbstractValidator<V extends Comparable<V>>

Parameters:

value - The value to validate, which may be null.

Throws:

ValidationException - if the provided value is not valid.

See Also:

• AbstractValidator.throwInvalidValueValidationException(Object)
• AbstractValidator.throwValueRequiredValidationException(Object)

isValidStep

protected abstract boolean isValidStep(V value,
 V step,
 V base)

Determines whether the given value falls on the correct step amount relative to the base value.

Parameters:

value - The value to validate.

step - The step value.

base - The base (either the minimum or maximum value), or null if zero should be used as a base.

Returns:

true if the value is a valid step away from the given base.
