I want to give validation condition to text property like integers are not allowed only alphabets and special characters are allow. length should not exceed 20 characters how can I achieve this using edit validate rule(Java code ). I want to throw error messages as well when some one enters integer and exceed 20 characters limit.Both error messages should display at same time.
For Ex. "Length should not exceed 20 characters"
Only Alphabets and specila characters are allowed.

Hi @PallaviI
1. You can use "AlphabeticValidation" OOTB Rule and Under Advanced TAB of the your Property
Note: It will allow only Alphabetics it means: Check if the specified string contains all letters. (Spaces also not allowed)
2. You mention the max length of the text under Advanced Tab of the your Property
I hope this will hep you,
Thanks,

Hi @PallaviI
Records --> Data Model --> Edit Validate and Click Create for New Rule Creation Naming Convention your Wish: AlphaSpecialValidation
Paste the below Code into Java Source Workspace
Note : This is a Our Own Rule, it is not a OOTB Rule.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
for (int pos = 0, len = theValue.length(); pos < len; ++pos)
{
char c = theValue.charAt(pos);
int ascii = (int)c;
if ((ascii<32 || ascii>47) && (ascii<58 || ascii>127))
{
theProperty.addMessage("Only Allowed Alphabets and Special Characters Eg: ABC !@#$");
return false;
}
}
return true;

Hi @PallaviI
Already we are restricted the length of the letters, it will not allow the more than 20 alphabets/special characters.
If you want display the message you can just edit
theProperty.addMessage("Only Allowed Alphabets and Special Characters Eg: ABC !@#$");
You can Replace above line of code with below line.
theProperty.addMessage("It will allow only maximum characters 20 and Only Allowed Alphabets and Special Characters Eg: ABC !@#$");
I hope this will help you,
Thanks,

@Bhumireddyif user enters more than 20 characters not integers so at that time I want to display only one error message like length should not exceed 20 characters and same when he enters less than 20 characters and enter any integer then another error message should populate like only alphabets and special characters are allowed.
If he enter more than 20 char. And integers then both error messages should populate.
