Hi group,
I have text fields with formatters attached in my WOComponent and I am
using validationFailedWithException to display the validation error
messages next to the corresponding text field. I want to override the
default messages and provide more user friendly messages.
To accommodate this I am using property level validation within the
EOs [validateKey()]. This takes care of most data
entry errors, but when an attached formatter fails, a validation
exception is thrown before validateKey() gets called.
I get something like:
The character x in the string xyz is not a valid character for a
number with a pattern of #,##0.00;#,##0.00;-#,##0.00
I want to, somehow, catch this exception and replace the message with
something like:
Invalid number format!
I have a workaround solution by searching the passed in exception's
message during validationFailedWithException using something like:
if (e.getMessage().indexOf("number with a pattern of") > 0}
message = "Invalid number format!");
else if (e.getMessage().startsWith("Format.parseObject"))
message = "Invalid date format!");
else
message = e.getMessage();
It seems like there must be a better solution than this. Any
suggestions are welcome.
Could you determine what type of message to return based upon the field
name (keyPath)?
