Class Details

[line 80]
Rule checking the value's length

The rule needs an "allowed length" parameter for its work, it can be either

a scalar: the value will be valid if it is exactly this long
an array: the value will be valid if its length is between the given values (inclusive). If one of these evaluates to 0, then length will be compared only with the remaining one.

See mergeConfig() for description of possible ways to pass configuration parameters.

The Rule considers empty fields as valid and doesn't try to compare their lengths with provided limits.

For convenience this Rule is also registered with the names 'minlength' and 'maxlength' (having, respectively, 'max' and 'min' parameters set to 0):

 $password->addRule('minlength', 'The password should be at least 6 characters long', 6);

 $message->addRule('maxlength', 'Your message is too verbose', 1000);

mergeConfig [line 176]

int|array mergeConfig(
int|array
$localConfig, int|array
$globalConfig)

Merges length limits given on rule creation with those given to registerRule()

"Global" length limits may be passed to HTML_QuickForm2_Factory::registerRule() in either of the following formats

scalar (exact length)
array(minlength, maxlength)
array(['min' => minlength, ]['max' => maxlength])

"Local" length limits may be passed to the constructor in either of the following formats

scalar (if global config is unset then it is treated as an exact length, if 'min' or 'max' is in global config then it is treated as 'max' or 'min', respectively)
array(minlength, maxlength)
array(['min' => minlength, ]['max' => maxlength])

As usual, global configuration overrides local one.

Return: Merged length limits
Access: public

Overrides HTML_QuickForm2_Rule::mergeConfig() (Merges local configuration with that provided for registerRule())

Parameters:

int\|array	`$localConfig`	—	Local length limits
int\|array	`$globalConfig`	—	Global length limits, usually provided to HTML_QuickForm2_Factory::registerRule()

array
$length, array
$config)

Adds the 'min' and 'max' fields from one array to the other

setConfig [line 209]

HTML_QuickForm2_Rule setConfig(
int|array
$config)

Sets the allowed length limits
