New Post: Best way to apply global/default rules for primitive (string) types

Hi folks,

We're wanting to enforce some global rules for string inputs (basically a regex match to prevent malicious input), and then allow the validators to override it on specific fields if needed. What's the best way to approach this? I've looked at

• PropertyValidator, but you have to call SetValidator on each field
• AbstractValidator<string>, but this doesn't seem to get picked up and run
  

At the moment, I'm thinking we'll have to use a Base class that all our validators inherit from, reflect over the validation type and add our custom validation rules for any public string properties. But I'm hoping there might be a nicer way?

Thanks
