Class VTime

java.lang.Object
fc.web.forms.FieldValidator
fc.web.forms.VTime
public final class VTime extends FieldValidator
Validates a time entered in a text box. Typical examples may look like: 1:23 pm, 1 am, 1:00 am, and 01:23 pm (with or without "am/pm" as part of the entered text). By default, all of the above patterns are allowed and the space between the time and "am/pm" is optional. This can be changed via the useAM_PM and allowSpaceBeforeAM_PM(boolean) methods.

    • validate

      public boolean validate(FormData fd, jakarta.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest req)
      Works with any field that returns a String via it's
      invalid reference 
      Field#getValue
      method.

      If validation succeeds, this method puts the parsed date in the specified form data as the validated value for the target field. This saves the hassle of reparsing the text when (typically) retrieving it later to save the value out to the database.
