Category:OWASP Content Validation using Java Annotations Project - SHIP Validator 0.3 Release - Roadmap

Motivation:

For this release we wished to add more javadoc, refactor the code to be more readable and add more diagrams to explain the code.

Usage:

1. Add the SHIPValidator.jar to your classpath
2. Test whether it works by using the following command: java no.uib.ii.ship.validation.test.Webform
3. Add the code below to your application to use the validator. Note that the Validator can be reused.

IValidatorFactory vf = new ValidatorFactory(); //Instantiate a validator factory 
Validator val = vf.getValidator(); // Create a validator 
ValidationSummary vs = val.validate(w); // validate the annotated object w  
System.out.println(vs.toString());

Documentation:

In the folder tex is an article describing the framework which can be used as a first draft of the manual.

Bug in MetaConstraints:

In the work we discovered and fixed a bug in MetaConstraints. This bug was also in the previous two releases, but has been fixed in the downloadable packages.
