Description
Hi, I'm new to Commons Validator. Sometimes I need to provide a default value if a validation fails.
Integer val = IntegerValidator.getInstance().validate(str);
if (val == null) {
val = 0;
}
Or
Integer val = (Integer) ObjectUtils.defaultIfNull(IntegerValidator.getInstance().validate(str), 0);
I think it would be great if a default value could be provided as a second parameter in the method validate
If you find it useful, I will be glad to submit a patch to contribute. I've almost never done a contribution (some little patches to JBoss JPBM time ago) and I think that this would be a nice place to start again.
