[Validator] Added inheritDoc phpdoc for validate methods
Was instructed by @stof to do this for a PR on comparison validators and noticed none of the validators used inheritDoc.
Bug fix: no
Feature addition: no
Backwards compatibility break: no
Symfony2 tests pass: yes
Fixes the following tickets: n/a
Todo: I haven't looked around too much, but I assume if none of the validators followed this standard that there would be a fair few other classes not using. Obviously not a big issue though

[Validator] Reintroduced Range constraint and created Count and Length constraints
Bug fix: no
Feature addition: no
Backwards compatibility break: no
Symfony2 tests pass: yes
Fixes the following tickets: -
Todo: -
After @Tobion's comment to #4851, this is the next try to streamline the constraints and reduce duplication of logic. The downside of the current MinLength/MaxLength and MinCount/MaxCount pairs is that they cannot output a fitting error message if a value should have an *exact* length/count. So this PR introduces
* Range (formerly Size) to replace Min/Max
* Count to replace MinCount/MaxCount
* Length to replace MinLength/MaxLength
Feedback is appreciated.

The `choice` constraint also cannot handle `min = max`. Or maybe we don't need these options on choice anymore as we can achieve the same with the new `count` constraint?!

Dude, nobody has time to fix the BC breaks you introduce :-)

The changes to the `Size` validator yesterday broke my project, and I started rewriting to use `MaxLength / MinLength` validators today, until I spotted this. It would be good if this PR could have a reasonably high priority (whether or not it is accepted) as it will change how I fix my issues. I suspect a lot of people using the master branch will be in the same situation.

This PR cleans up with the current ambiguity between
* Min
* Max
* MinLength
* MaxLength
* Range
* Size
in the following ways:
* The Range constraint was removed again as it can be completely replaced by Min and Max.
* The Size constraint was reverted to it's 2.0 feature set and deprecated.
* The constraints MinCount and MaxCount were added to make up for the functionality that was added to Size.

6f9eda9 [Form][Validator] Fixed generation of HTML5 pattern attribute based on Assert\Regex to remove delimiters.
Discussion
----------
[Form][Validator] Fixed generation of HTML5 pattern attribute based on Assert\Regex by removing delimiters or using a new option: htmlPattern.
Hopefully, this time is the good one…
* Fixes: [#3766, #4077, #4513, #4520, #4521]
* Bug fix: yes
* Feature addition: yes
* BC break: no
* Symfony2 tests pass: yes
In Issue #3766, it was asked that Assert\Regex generates HTML5 pattern attribute.
It was done in PR #4077, but the generated Regex is in delimited format which is not supported by HTML5.
Hence, `/[a-z]+/` would be converted to `[a-z]+`.
If flags are specified like in `/[a-z]+/i`, it cannot be converted and pattern validation will be disabled client-side. If is however now possible, using a new option, `htmlPattern`, to specify the pattern you want to be used.
Example:
```php
<?php
/**
* @Assert\Regex(pattern="/^[0-9]+[a-z]*$/i", htmlPattern="^[0-9]+[a-zA-Z]*$")
*/
private $civic_number;
```
**Note**: [Documentation](http://symfony.com/doc/current/reference/constraints/Regex.html) should be updated accordingly.

[Validator] separate numeric values from suffixes in File validation error messages
This change allows me to locale-aware format the numbers in a form theme, i.e., to use a comma instead of a dot. If there's a better way without re-implementing the entire validator, let me know.
Such changes also allow for using a different separator than the usual space in translations.

by sstok at 2012-05-13T13:29:07Z
Using the NumberFormatter class would be an option, but that would also add a dependency when using Validation as stand-alone so using the {{ suffix }} is a good idea.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by craue at 2012-05-13T14:15:54Z
Using a NumberFormatter (if available) directly in the validator might indeed be a good option. In either case, having the numeric value separated from its suffix looks cleaner.

I dislike the rising amount of very specific constraints in the core. Can't we add this to Size?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by vicb at 2012-04-29T09:01:39Z
@bschussek #3918 implements what you propose but then the messages are not valid any more:
```php
<?php
public $minMessage = 'This value should be {{ limit }} or more';
public $maxMessage = 'This value should be {{ limit }} or less';
public $invalidMessage = 'This value should be a valid number';
```
I can imagine 2 solutions:
- adding some more message,
- rename the `Size` constraint to `Range` and create a new `Size` constraint for arrays / countables.
What do you think ?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by bschussek at 2012-04-29T09:27:53Z
I'd prefer the second solution and merge `Size` with `SizeLength` as well.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by vicb at 2012-04-29T09:34:50Z
@bschussek It would make sense. @makasim @Herzult any one of you would like to contribute this (i.e. rename the current Size to Range and create a new Size supporting arrays / countables / strings) ?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by Herzult at 2012-04-29T14:31:12Z
Yep, I'm on it.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by stof at 2012-04-29T15:22:44Z
@Herzult could you take the other comment into account and merge SizeLength into you Size ?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by vicb at 2012-04-29T15:33:05Z
The guessers should also be modified (it might also affect the ODM which is in an other repo, if so it would be good to sync the changes).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by Herzult at 2012-04-29T16:38:19Z
@stof the problem merging SizeLength into Size is that they don't have the same required options & messages.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by Herzult at 2012-04-29T16:47:40Z
And what about renaming Range to Interval and SizeLength to IntervalLength?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by stof at 2012-04-29T16:54:38Z
Well, SizeLength is about matching the length of a string currently. Nothing related to intervals
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by Herzult at 2012-04-29T17:29:40Z
Here are the current names:
* **Size** for collection (countable) size
* **Range** for numbers
* **SizeLength** for strings
Merging **SizeLength** into **Size** is maybe not appropriate because collections and strings are different things. It'll be hard to find messages that fit both collections and strings. Maybe we had better to find a better name for both. What do you think?
About the ValidatorTypeGuesser, I'll update it as soon as we know ow to name the constraints.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by vicb at 2012-04-29T17:43:01Z
Size is a good name for both strings and "collections", could we have two sets of strings and select according to the type ?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by Herzult at 2012-04-29T22:39:55Z
I tried to merge them together, what do you think?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by vicb at 2012-04-30T06:52:37Z
I think your changes are great, may be @bschussek has more feedback. The ValidatorTypeGuesser and the translation are yet to be updated.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by hhamon at 2012-05-01T12:32:28Z
Am I missing something or `SizeLength` for strings is a duplicate for `MinLength` and `MaxLength` constraints?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by Herzult at 2012-05-02T13:29:36Z
Yep, that's true. But the only link between this PR and the SizeLength constraint is that I merged it to the one I introduced.

Fix components
See #4141
----
This PR:
* configures each component to use composer to manage "dev" dependencies instead of env variables;
* adds phpunit configuration file on Filesystem component;
* fixes READMEs.
It's mergeable without any problems, but I would recommend to wait a fix in Composer in order to use `self.version` in `require`/`require-dev` sections.
Note: I kept `suggest` sections because it makes sense but this PR doesn't aim to provide useful explanations for each entry. It could be another PR, not that one.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by willdurand at 2012-04-30T20:43:13Z
@fabpot I reviewed each component, one by one. Now `phpunit` always works, even if tests are skipped. A simple `composer install --dev` allows to run the complete test suite. Each commit is well separated from the others. I guess, everything is ok now.

2. Keep messages in the classes and change all xliff files?

The constraints contain the en message so you will need to modify them to update the message
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by hason at 2012-02-09T08:55:55Z
I prefer second option. The Validator component should be decoupled from the Translation component. The constraints contain the en message which is also the key for Translation component. We should create validators.en.xlf in the FrameworkBundle for en message. I think that this is better solution. What do you think?

[Validator] Added GroupSequenceProvider
Bug fix: no
Feature addition: yes
Backwards compatibility break: no
Symfony2 tests pass: ![](https://secure.travis-ci.org/blogsh/symfony.png?branch=dynamic_group_sequence)
As discussed in #3114 I implemented the "GroupSequenceProvider" pattern for the validator component. It allows the user to select certain validation groups based on the current state of an object. Here is an example:
/**
* @Assert\GroupSequenceProvider("UserGroupSequnceProvider")
*/
class User
{
/**
* @Assert\NotBlank(groups={"Premium"})
*/
public function getAddress();
public function hasPremiumSubscription();
}
class UserGroupSequenceProvider implements GroupSequenceProviderInterface
{
public function getValidationGroups($user)
{
if ($user->hasPremiumSubscription()) {
return array('User', 'Premium');
} else {
return array('User');
}
}
}
With this patch there are two mechanisms to define the group sequence now. Either you can use @GroupSequence to define a static order of validation groups or you can use @GroupSequenceProvider to create dynamic validation group arrays.
The ClassMetadata therefore has methods now which implement quite similar things. The question is whether it would make sense to interpret the static group sequence as a special case and create something like a DefaultGroupSequenceProvider or StaticGroupSequenceProvider which is assigned by default. This would cause a BC break inside the validator component.

I like the implementation, but I think we should differ a little bit from Java here.
1. `GroupSequenceProviderInterface` should be implemented by the domain classes themselves (`User`), not by a separate class.
2. As such, the parameter `$object` from `getValidationGroups($object)` can be removed
3. `ClassMetadata::setGroupSequenceProvider()` should accept a boolean to activate/deactivate this functionality. Also the check for the interface (does the underlying class implement it?) should be done here
Apart from that, special cases need to be treated:
* A definition of a group sequence and a group sequence provider in the same `ClassMetadata` should not be allowed. Either of them must not be set.
* Metadata loaders must take care of settings made by parent classes. If `Animal` is extended by `Dog`, `Animal` defines a group sequence (or group sequence provider) and `Dog` a group sequence provider (or group sequence), only the setting of `Dog` should apply

Changes of the latest commit:
- GroupSequenceProviderInterface has to be implemented by the domain class
- The annotation/configuration options let the user define whether the provider is activated or not (is this neccessary at all?)
- An error is thrown if the user wants to use static group sequences and the provider simultaneously
At the moment neither the static group sequence nor the provider is inherited from parent classes or interfaces. I don't know if it would make sense to enable this feature. There could be problems if a user wants to define a static group sequence in the parent class and a sequence provider in the child class.

In this case, the setting in the child class should override the setting of the parent class.
But we can leave this open for now. As it seems, [this issue is unresolved in Hibernate as well](https://hibernate.onjira.com/browse/HV-467).

Okay, finally I managed to upload the latest commit. If you got a bunch of notifications or so I'm sorry, but I had to revert some accidental changes in the commit :(
I've rewritten the tests and have removed the "active" setting in the XML configuration.

Okay, typos are fixed now and `hasGroupSequenceProvider` has been renamed to `isGroupSequenceProvider`. I also had to adjust some tests after the rebase with master.

Can you add a note in the CHANGELOG before I merge? Thanks.
