More stringent password requierments

[PazZaitGivon]

Make it so that people can make categories of characters and require that something from each category appears a specified number of times in the password. This is often a requirement for passwords.

Vince (@vincenicoara) and I plan to implement the following enhancements to the current program that will create better control of the password generation recipe:

New Features for superior password generation recipes

A check box for each of the following areas, so that the user may include or exclude any of the following types of characters, and text-box interfaces to set the range of characters they want in each type:

• uppercase, min/max
• lowercase, min/max
• digits, min/max
• special chars, min/max, default set or user's set

Depends on other issues

These improvements are more of an above-and-beyond improvement to the program, as it depends on many current issues:

• 4 - restructuring and refactoring of the build.xml, - DONE

• 9 - making the GUI decent

• 13 - the special chars not actually affecting output bug - DONE

• 14 - JUnit tests for the existing code - DONE

• 18 and - refactoring the existing code and its commentary - DONE

Proposed points:

• 150 points for refactoring the constructors, setters and getters to accommodate the new features,
• 100 points for the new corresponding unit tests
• 100 points for implementing the GUI for the new features (see photo above for protoype of new GUI for the added features)

(350 total points)

looks and works great but still buggy in that if min and max are the same or min is greater than max it just throws a bunch of exceptions and does nothing. 50 points proposed to fix this with appropriate error messages in the gui and for the 4 just make it exactly that ammount of said charachters

I think Vince might have addressed this in his Issues for next year part form lab08, though correct me if I'm wrong!

[PazZaitGivon]

Your right! but he left out a bit about making the exact amount if min and max are equal. Good job on this guys!
