Minor length-checking error message problem #18

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
In esapi.reference.validation, StringValidationRule.java:

Lines 99-102:

// check length
if (canonical.length() < minLength) {
    throw new ValidationException( context + ": Invalid input. The maximum
length of " + maxLength + " characters was exceeded.", "Input exceeds
maximum allowed length of " + maxLength + " by " +
(canonical.length()-maxLength) + " characters: context=" + context + ",
type=" + getTypeName() + "), input=" + input, context );
}

The error message is incorrect. It should say something like: "The minimum
number of characters (" + minLength + ") was not met."

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Latest SVN of ESAPI.

Sorry. Fixed this one recently and didn't realize there was already an issue 
for it.
Looks like revision 814.
