跨字段验证可以通过创建自定义约束来完成。
示例：-比较用户实例的密码和confirmPassword字段。

用户
@CompareStrings(propertyNames={"password", "confirmPassword"})
public class User {
private String password;
private String confirmPassword;
public String getPassword() { return password; }
public void setPassword(String password) { this.password = password; }
public String getConfirmPassword() { return confirmPassword; }
public void setConfirmPassword(String confirmPassword) { this.confirmPassword = confirmPassword; }
}
测试
public void test() {
User user = new User();
user.setPassword("password");
user.setConfirmPassword("paSSword");
Set<ConstraintViolation<User>> violations = beanValidator.validate(user);
for(ConstraintViolation<User> violation : violations) {
logger.debug("Message:- " + violation.getMessage());
}
Assert.assertEquals(violations.size(), 1);
}
输出量 Message:- [Password, ConfirmPassword] must be equal.
通过使用CompareStrings验证约束，我们还可以比较两个以上的属性，并且可以混合使用四种字符串比较方法中的任何一种。
色彩选择
@CompareStrings(propertyNames={"color1", "color2", "color3"}, matchMode=StringComparisonMode.NOT_EQUAL, message="Please choose three different colors.")
public class ColorChoice {
private String color1;
private String color2;
private String color3;
......
}
测试
ColorChoice colorChoice = new ColorChoice();
colorChoice.setColor1("black");
colorChoice.setColor2("white");
colorChoice.setColor3("white");
Set<ConstraintViolation<ColorChoice>> colorChoiceviolations = beanValidator.validate(colorChoice);
for(ConstraintViolation<ColorChoice> violation : colorChoiceviolations) {
logger.debug("Message:- " + violation.getMessage());
}
输出量 Message:- Please choose three different colors.
同样，我们可以具有CompareNumbers，CompareDates等跨字段验证约束。
