Namespace: DataTables

Assembly: DataTables-Editor-Server.dll

Declaration

public bool? Empty

Type	Description
System.Nullable<System.Boolean>

Message

Error message should the validation fail

Declaration

public string Message

Field Value

Type	Description
System.String

Optional

Require the field to be submitted (false) or not (true - default). When set to true the field does not need to be included in the list of parameters sent by the client - if set to false then it must be included. This option can be particularly useful in Editor as Editor will not set a value for fields which have not been submitted - giving the ability to submit just a partial list of options.

Declaration

public bool Optional

Field Value

Type	Description
System.Boolean

Methods

Select(ValidationOpts)

Check to see if validation options have been given. If not, create and instance with the default options and return that. This is useful for checking to see if a user has passed in validation options or not, since a new instance can't be a default parameter value.

Declaration

public static ValidationOpts Select(ValidationOpts user)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
ValidationOpts	user	User set validation options or null

Returns

Type	Description
ValidationOpts	Validation options to use for the validation
