      public FilenameConstraints(File baseDir, boolean relativeOnly)
      Parameters:

    • isValid

      public String isValid(String v)
      Description copied from class: PropertiesQuestion.ValueConstraints
      Is the given value valid for this field? Since this constraint class has no particular typing, the default only check that the value is non-empty. You may override this method to do custom checking, or you may do your checking in getInvalidKeys() which by default defers to the associated constraint object (if any).
      Overrides:
      isValid in class PropertiesQuestion.ValueConstraints
      Parameters:
      v - The value to check.
      Returns:
      Null if the valid is valid, a localized reason string otherwise.
