validation in struts2 -

public class admin extends actionsupport implements modeldriven<admindata>   {    admindata admindata = new admindata();    public admindata getmodel()      {         return admindata;     }      @validations(requiredstrings ={       @requiredstringvalidator(type=validatortype.field,fieldname="emailid"),     @requiredstringvalidator(type=validatortype.field,fieldname="password")}     public string auth()     {      }        @validations(requiredstrings ={      @requiredstringvalidator(type=validatortype.field,fieldname="emailid"),         @requiredstringvalidator(type=validatortype.field,fieldname="firstname"),         @requiredstringvalidator(type=validatortype.field,fieldname="surname"),         @requiredstringvalidator(type=validatortype.field,fieldname="password")}    public string create() throws databaseexception    {      }  } 

my problem when call create() method there no problem in validation, when call auth() method there problem validation because when call auth method goes validation of firstname , surname.

and there getset in admindata.java

by default struts2 validator check validation constraints methods. can configure struts validation constraints related current method. turn on validateannotatedmethodonly in struts.xml:

<struts>     <package ...>         <interceptors>             <interceptor-stack name="defaultstack">                  .....                  <!-- turning per method validation on -->                 <interceptor-ref name="validation">                     <param name="validateannotatedmethodonly">true</param>                     <param name="excludemethods">input,back,cancel,browse</param>                 </interceptor-ref>                  ......              </interceptor-stack>         </interceptors>     </package> </struts>
