Forms Model

The Forms Mapping & Validation package is designed to make it easier to work with HTML forms by allowing you to specify which elements a form should contain and how they should be mapped and validated.

When you receive an HttpServletRequest, you simply say "given the form specifications I have defined, map/validate this request". Once the form has been mapped, you can easily access elements in the form as first class Java object (ie. String, Boolean, etc).  If an element in the form is not valid, you'll be notified of the error. The form mapping and validation framework does most of the dirty work for you.

For details on how to use the Forms Mapping & Validation package, refer to the Forms Model - 30,000 Ft Overview.
