Use the Edit Validate form to define a Java routine that tests the validity of an input value in an activity that processes user input. The activity calls the Property-Validate method, which applies the test defined in an Edit Validate rule.
Typically, the input value arrives from a user who completes an HTML form, but it may also arrive through an interface with an external system.
Normally, if user input fails such processing, the input is rejected and a red X mark appears next to the input field in error. Messages may convey more about the error and the suggested remedy. The user can change the input and resubmit the form.
A property rule (of mode Single Value,
Value List or Value Group) may
reference an edit validate rule on the Advanced tab. Use the Property-Validate
method in an activity to execute the edit validate rule when a
value is submitted through a user input form.
Edit validate rules can also appear in the Validate As parameter of the Property-Validate method, and in validate rules).
Use the Rules by Type Explorer to list all edit validate rules available to you.
Edit validate rules are instances of the
Rule-Edit-Validate class. They are part of the
Property category.
