the registration for the event

addValidator

public void addValidator(Validator<T> validator)

addValidHandler

public HandlerRegistration addValidHandler(ValidEvent.ValidHandler handler)

Description copied from interface: ValidEvent.HasValidHandlers

Adds a ValidEvent handler for ValidEvent events.

Specified by:

addValidHandler in interface ValidEvent.HasValidHandlers

Parameters:

handler - the handler

Returns:

the registration for the event

addValueChangeHandler

public HandlerRegistration addValueChangeHandler(ValueChangeHandler<T> handler)

Specified by:

addValueChangeHandler in interface HasValueChangeHandlers<T>

Overrides:

addValueChangeHandler in class CellComponent<T>

clear

public void clear()

Clears the value from the field.

Specified by:

clear in interface IsField<T>

clearInvalid

public void clearInvalid()

Clear any invalid styles / messages for this field.

Specified by:

clearInvalid in interface IsField<T>

finishEditing

public void finishEditing()

flush

public void flush()

Specified by:

flush in interface ValueAwareEditor<T>

forceInvalid

public void forceInvalid(String msg)

Forces the field to be invalid using the given error message. When using this feature, clearInvalid() must be called to clear the error. Also, no other validation logic will execute.

Parameters:

msg - the error text

getCell

public FieldCell<T> getCell()

Description copied from class: CellComponent

Get the Cell wrapped by this widget.

Overrides:

getCell in class CellComponent<T>

Returns:

the Cell being wrapped

getErrorSupport

public ErrorHandler getErrorSupport()

Returns the field's error support instance.

Returns:

the error support

getName

public String getName()

Gets the field's name.

Specified by:

getName in interface HasName

Returns:

the field's new name

getValidateOnBlur

public boolean getValidateOnBlur()

Returns true if the value is validate on blur.

Returns:

the validate on blur state

getValidationDelay

public int getValidationDelay()

Returns the field's validation delay in milliseconds.

Returns:

the delay in milliseconds

getValidators

public List<Validator<T>> getValidators()

Returns the field's validators.

Returns:

the validators

isAutoValidate

public boolean isAutoValidate()

Returns true if the field value is validated on each key press.

Returns:

the auto validate state

true if valid

isValid

public boolean isValid(boolean preventMark)

Description copied from interface: IsField

Returns whether or not the field value is currently valid.

Specified by:

Parameters:

preventMark - true for silent validation (no invalid event and field is not marked invalid)

Returns:

true if the value is valid, otherwise false

markInvalid

public void markInvalid(String msg)

Marks this field as invalid. Validation will still run if called again, and the error message will be changed or cleared based on validation. To set a error message that will not be cleared until manually cleared see forceInvalid(String)

Parameters:

msg - the validation message
