ParameterTypeValidator parameterTypeValidator()

Deprecated.

Return ParameterTypeValidator instance used inside this parameter validation rule

Returns:

allowEmptyValue

boolean allowEmptyValue()

Deprecated.

allowEmptyValue is used in query, header, cookie and form parameters. This is its behaviour:

1. During validation, the ValidationHandler check if there's a parameter with combination of location and name as defined in this rule
2. If it not exists, It will check allowEmptyValue and if there's a default value set inside ParameterTypeValidator:
• If this condition it's true, It marks as validated the parameter and returns the default value (inside RequestParameter)
• If this condition it's false, It throws ValidationException
3. If the parameter exists, It checks if parameter is null or empty string:
• If allowEmptyValue it's true, It marks as validated the parameter and returns the default value if it exists (inside RequestParameter)
• If allowEmptyValue it's false, It throws ValidationException

Returns:

value of allowEmptyValue
