[FormProc-developer] Dynamically adding fields to validate

[<ba...@ro...>]

Is there a way in the API to add fileds to be validated?

I'm building part of a form on the fly, and have (x) number of repeating
fields, that I'd like to validate, but don't know how many, or their names
up front (well, I set their names).

I figured I could read the form xml in, add the nodes I need, and pass
that to the FormManager.. but didn't know if there was a more elegant way.

Thanks,

Barrie

FormElements are retrieved from a FormConfiguration object, with 
FormConfiguration being an interface.  Even though FormProc currently 
only comes with an XMLFormConfiguration implementation you could easily 
implement an alternative FormConfiguration class which allows you to add 
more elements at runtime by extending from the AbstractFormConfiguration 
class as needed.

I'm going to add a basic in-memory implementation of FormConfiguration 
in the next version.
