These libraries include sample code for performing basic data validation. They are similar to the Flex 3 SDK validators and they can be used within Flex or Flash Professional SWF files. Included within the package are basic data validation methods such as determining if a string contains only alphanumeric characters. The basic methods are then leveraged to validate more complex concepts such as zip codes, credit card numbers and URLs. The sample framework provided within these classes is basic but should be extensible to fit the needs of various implementations. It is expected that these raw classes will be reviewed and customized before being implemented within a particular environment.
