Used at METHOD level.

Annotation parameters:

Parameter Required Notes
requiredFields no Add list of RequiredFieldValidators
customValidators no Add list of CustomValidators
conversionErrorFields no Add list of ConversionErrorFieldValidators
dateRangeFields no Add list of DateRangeFieldValidators
emails no Add list of EmailValidators
fieldExpressions no Add list of FieldExpressionValidators
intRangeFields no Add list of IntRangeFieldValidators
requiredStrings no Add list of RequiredStringValidators
stringLengthFields no Add list of StringLengthFieldValidators
urls no Add list of UrlValidators
visitorFields no Add list of VisitorFieldValidators
regexFields no Add list of RegexFieldValidator
expressions no Add list of ExpressionValidator

Example code:

 
 @Validations(
           requiredFields =
                   {@RequiredFieldValidator(type = ValidatorType.SIMPLE, fieldName = "customfield", message = "You must enter a value for field.")},

           urls =
                   { @UrlValidator(type = ValidatorType.SIMPLE, fieldName = "hreflocation", message = "You must enter a value for email.")},
           stringLengthFields =
                   {@StringLengthFieldValidator(type = ValidatorType.SIMPLE, trim = true, minLength="10" , maxLength = "12", fieldName = "needstringlength", message = "You must enter a stringlength.")},
