public abstract class ValidationEditorSupport
extends PropertyEditorSupport

This is a useful base class for JavaBeans property editors whose main purpose is to provide validation of form input parameters.

Overriding setAsText is sufficient. Do whatever validation you need and throw IllegalArgumentException if something is wrong. If all is ok then set the protected attribute "value" to the converted value (may be a string).
