velosurf.validation
Class DateRange

java.lang.Object
  velosurf.validation.FieldConstraint
      velosurf.validation.DateRange

public class DateRange
extends FieldConstraint

A type and range constraint on dates. Syntax is:

    <column [type="date"] [after="date-after"] [before="date-before"] />
  

The type="date" parameter is implied when after or before is found.
Or:

     <column>
       <date [after="afer-date"] [before="before-date"] [message="error-message"] />
     </column>
   

The format used to specify after and before dates is yyyyMMdd. The format used to parse the input is the short local date format (which depends upon the user locale).
