public class NumberField
extends TextField

Provides a Number Field control:   <input type='text'>.

Number Field
NumberField uses a NumberFormat to format, parse and validate the input text. The number format can either directly be set through setNumberFormat(NumberFormat) or by setting the number format pattern with setPattern(String).

When NumberField is validated and the input string can be parsed by the NumberFormat then the string value of this field (@link net.sf.click.control.Field#getValue()} is set to the formatted value of the input.

For example if you define an integer pattern of "#,##0" and the users enters "2.54" then the resulting Number is 3. For all such cases the NumberFormat does recognize the input as valid and does not mark the field as invalid. To get the exact string the user entered either turn validation off or call Field.getValue().

When the Number is set through setNumber(Number) the value of the field is also set to the formated number. The number returned from getNumber() is then the formatted number. It is not the orginal Number passed in. To circumvent formatting use setValue().

The NumberField uses a JavaScript onkeypress() doubleFilter() method to prevent users from entering invalid characters. To enable number key filtering reference $jsImports and $cssImports in your page template. For example: 

 <html>
 <head>
 $cssImports
 </head>
 <body>
 $form
 </body>
 </html>
 $jsImports
The NumberField has right justified horizontal text alignment, Field.setTextAlign(String).

getMaxValue

public double getMaxValue()
Return the maximum valid double field value.

Returns:
the maximum valid double field value

setMaxValue

public void setMaxValue(double value)
Set the maximum valid double field value.

Parameters:
value - the maximum valid double field value

setMinValue

public void setMinValue(double value)

getNumberFormat

public NumberFormat getNumberFormat()
Return the NumberFormat for formating/parsing the field value. If no NumberFormat has been set before, the NumberFormat for the requests locale is used. If this format is a DecimalNumberFormat the pattern is applied to it.

This method is used through-out this class to obtain the NumberFormat. By overriding this method full control is given onto which NumberFormat is used for formatting, parsing and validating.

Returns:
the NumberFormat to format/parse the field's value

setNumberFormat

public void setNumberFormat(NumberFormat format)
Set the NumberFormat for this field.

By default the format of the request locale is used and the pattern is set. If the getPattern() is set then the pattern will be applied to the new Format if it a DecimalFormat.

Parameters:
format - the number format

getPattern

public String getPattern()
Return the number pattern used for formatting and parsing.

Returns:
the number pattern used for formatting and parsing

setPattern

public void setPattern(String pattern)
Set the number pattern used for formatting and parsing.

By default the pattern is null and the default number pattern of the context locale is used. If set the pattern will be also applied to an already set NumberFormat.

Parameters:
pattern - the pattern used for formatting and parsing

getValueObject

public Object getValueObject()
Return the field Number value, or null if value was empty or a parsing error occured.

Returns:
the Number object representation of the Field value

setValueObject

public void setValueObject(Object object)
Set the Number value of the field using the given object.

Parameters:
object - the object value to set

getHtmlImports

public String getHtmlImports()
Return the HTML head import statements for the JavaScript (click/extras-control.js) file.

Returns:
the HTML head import statements for the JavaScript file
See Also:
Control.getHtmlImports()

getValidationJavaScript

public String getValidationJavaScript()
Return the field JavaScript client side validation function.

The function name must follow the format validate_[id], where the id is the DOM element id of the fields focusable HTML element, to ensure the function has a unique name.

Returns:
the field JavaScript client side validation function

onDeploy

public void onDeploy(ServletContext servletContext)
Deploy the extras-control.js file to the click web directory when the application is initialized.

Parameters:
servletContext - the servlet context
See Also:
Control.onDeploy(ServletContext)

validate

public void validate()
Validates the NumberField request submission. If the value entered by the user can be parsed by the NumberFormat the string value of this Field (Field.getValue()) is set to the formatted value of the user input.

A field error message is displayed if a validation error occurs. These messages are defined in the resource bundle:

  • /click-control.properties
    • field-required-error
    • number-format-error
    • number-maxvalue-error
    • number-minvalue-error
