Grid validation

IBM® Operações de Marketing exposes a validation interface you can use to write custom validation plug-ins. A sample plug-in is provided, which uses the Validator interface.

The following validator is delivered with Operações de Marketing:

com.unicacorp.uap.grid.validation.plugin.GridValidatorPluginImpl

In most cases, you can use the provided plug-in, rather than writing your own custom validator.

The Grid tab uses the validator to validate input data. When you add a grid tab to a project template, one of the options you can specify is a validator.

Note:

Rule files use a specific format. When importing a rules XML file, it is validated against the XML schema gridrules.xsd.

Typically, a rule is specific to a form, as the underlying table structure is tightly bound with rules. Hence, we recommend that you use a rule with only one (grid) form.

Though Operações de Marketing ships with a few sample rules (range check, begins with, check unique), we expect the customer (or a consultant) to create and import custom rules files.
