Class NotEmpty

java.lang.Object
  velosurf.validation.FieldConstraint
      velosurf.validation.NotEmpty

public class NotEmpty
extends FieldConstraint

A "not empty" constraint. Syntax is:

    <column not-empty="true"/>
  

Or:

<column> <not-empty [message="error-message"]/> </column>

Note: this constraint is not meant to replace an internal SQL clause in the database, since it cannot be made sure that complex updates will respect this constraint.
