Change Password Validation

[ambrish_kumar]

Hi Everyone,

I want to validate the New Password field with Confirm password field.

Here is my code,

<s:decorate id="newPass" template="layout/edit.xhtml">
                <ui:define name="label">New Password :</ui:define>
                <h:inputSecret  id="newPassId" 
                           size="30"
                      maxlength="100"
                      required="true"
                      requiredMessage="Value is required."
                          value="#{changePassword.newPass}" 
validator="#{changePassword.validatePassword}" >
                  
                </h:inputSecret>
            </s:decorate>


<s:decorate id="confirmPass" template="layout/edit.xhtml">
                <ui:define name="label">Confirm Password :</ui:define>
                <h:inputSecret id="confirmPassId" 
                           size="30"
                      maxlength="100"
                      required="true"
                      requiredMessage="Value is required."
                          value="#{changePassword.confirmPass}" 
validator="#{changePassword.validatePassword}">
                   
                </h:inputSecret>
            </s:decorate>
<a:commandButton id="changePass" 
                          value="Submit"
                          action="#{changePassword.changePass}" style="cursor:hand;cursor:pointer;">
               </a:commandButton>

and the validator code is,

public void validatePassword(FacesContext context, UIComponent toValidate, Object value) {
          
          String password = (String) value;
          
          if(!(password.equals(confirmPass))){
               ((UIInput)toValidate).setValid(false);
               SeamResourceBundle srb = new SeamResourceBundle();  
               String passwordError = srb.getString("message.verify.user.password");
               FacesMessage message = new FacesMessage(passwordError);
               message.setSeverity(javax.faces.application.FacesMessage.SEVERITY_ERROR);               
               context.addMessage(toValidate.getClientId(context), message);                
          }
     }

Now the problem is that , when I submitt the form then I am getting null value for confirmPass.

Should i use a:support on both inputSecret text box?

Thanks

Hi Ambrish,

I'm working the same feature in my application, and I'm wondering exactly what you did with <f:attribute> to get it working. Do you have some example code you could post?

Thanks,
