      com.ibm.etools.iseries.rse.ui.validators.ValidatorIBMiUserId

public class ValidatorIBMiUserId
extends ValidatorSpecialChar

This class is used in dialogs that prompt for an iSeries userId.

This does very basic userId validation, just to ensure there are no problems when the user Id is saved in the preferences. This means restricting use of a couple special characters that would mess up the key/value processing of the preference data. The IInputValidator interface is used by jface's InputDialog class and numerous other platform and system classes.
