RegexStringValidator Class
Assembly: System.Configuration (in system.configuration.dll)
The RegexStringValidator contains the rules necessary to validate a string object based on a regular expression. The rules are established when the RegexStringValidator is instantiated.
The CanValidate method determines whether the object type being validated matches the expected type. The object being validated is passed as a parameter of the Validate method.
The following code example demonstrates how to use the RegexStringValidator type.
using System; using System.Configuration; namespace Microsoft.Samples.AspNet.Validators { class UsingRegexStringValidator { static void Main(string[] args) { // Display title. Console.WriteLine("ASP.NET Validators"); Console.WriteLine(); // Create RegexString and Validator. string testString = "someone@example.com"; string regexString = @"^[a-zA-Z\.\-_]+@([a-zA-Z\.\-_]+\.)+[a-zA-Z]{2,4$"; RegexStringValidator myRegexValidator = new RegexStringValidator(regexString); // Determine if the object to validate can be validated. Console.WriteLine("CanValidate: {0", myRegexValidator.CanValidate(testString.GetType())); try { // Attempt validation. myRegexValidator.Validate(testString); Console.WriteLine("Validated."); catch (ArgumentException e) { // Validation failed. Console.WriteLine("Error: {0", e.Message.ToString()); // Display and wait Console.ReadLine();
