Description
This protected method can be used to change the normal package validation scheme.
By default, all packages must begin with a letter and contain only letters, numbers
and underscores. Using this method, it is possible to change this entirely to enforce
another scheme.
For instance, enforcing java-style com.blah.package package names can be done simply by this code:
<?php
require_once 'PEAR/Validate.php';
class MyChannel_Validate extends PEAR_Validate
{
function _validPackageName($name)
{
return preg_match('/[a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z0-9_]*(\.[a-zA-Z0-9_]+)*/', $name);
}
}
?> |
Then, by using a customized channel validation package,
the installer will enforce java-style package names for your channel.
