public class ValidateOrder
extends ValidateMultipleFields

ValidateOrder validates if the values of the given UIInput components are in the order from least to greatest without duplicates, exactly as specified in the components attribute. The default message is

{0}: Please fill out the values of all those fields in order

For general usage instructions, refer ValidateMultipleFields documentation.

This validator has the additional requirement that the to-be-validated values must implement Comparable. This validator throws an IllegalArgumentException when one or more of the values do not implement it.
