Constraints

[dbevacqua]

Hi

Is it possible to find out programmatically what constraints are defined for a given property? Also what the parameter values are for constraints.

The reason is that I would like to be able to offer users different categories depending on what property they are setting e.g. when they set the value of the 'region' property they would be presented with lists of countries, continents etc but not irrelevant categories (there are more complex examples).

Thanks,

Dominic

For an example of getting the constraints defined for a property, see:

 org.alfresco.repo.node.integrity.PropertiesIntegrityEvent

To get the parameter values, cast the constraint and use getters.  See:

 org.alfresco.web.bean.generator.BaseComponentGenerator#setupStringLengthConstraint
