Constructor Detail

CurrencyValidator

()

Constructor

public function CurrencyValidator()

Language Version :

ActionScript 3.0

Product Version :

Flex 4.5

Runtime Versions :

Flash Player 10.1, AIR 2.5

Constructs a new CurrencyValidator object to validate numbers representing currency amounts according to the conventions of a given locale.

The locale for this class is supplied by the locale style property. The locale style can be set in several ways:

Inheriting the style from a UIComponent by calling the UIComponent's addStyleClient method.
By using the class in an MXML declaration and inheriting the locale from the document that contains the declaration.

      <fx:Declarations>
             <s:CurrencyValidator id="cv" />
      </fx:Declarations>

By using an MXML declaration and specifying the locale value in the list of assignments.

      <fx:Declarations>
          <s:CurrencyValidator id="cv_turkish" locale="tr-TR" />
      </fx:Declarations>

Calling the setStyle method, For example: cv.setStyle("locale", "tr-TR")

If the locale style is not set by one of the above techniques, the instance of this class will be added as a StyleClient to the topLevelApplication and will therefore inherit the locale style from the topLevelApplication object when the locale dependent property getter or locale dependent method is called.

The properties related to the currency string format are set to default values based on the locale.

NOTE: When a fallback locale is used, the currency properties are set to default values of en_US locale, and therefore might not match the currency for which the validation is intended. It is a good idea to examine the currencySymbol and currencyISOCode property values before validating a currency amount.

Method Detail

validateCurrency

()

method

public function validateCurrency(value:Object, baseField:String):Array

Language Version :

ActionScript 3.0

Product Version :

Flex 4.5

Runtime Versions :

Flash Player 10.1, AIR 2.5

Convenience method for calling a validator from within a custom validation function. Each of the standard Flex validators has a similar convenience method. Caller must check the ValidationResult objects in the returned array for validation status.

Parameters

	`value:Object` — A currency number string to validate.The number string can use unicode minus symbols 0x2212, 0xFE63, 0xFF0D besides ascii minus.

	`baseField:String` — Text representation of the subfield specified in the `value` parameter. For example, if the `value` parameter specifies value.number, the `baseField` value is "number".

Returns

Array — An Array of ValidationResult objects, with one ValidationResult object for each field examined by the validator.
