Class ECNumberCheckDigit

java.lang.Object
org.apache.commons.validator.routines.checkdigit.ModulusCheckDigit
org.apache.commons.validator.routines.checkdigit.ECNumberCheckDigit
All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, CheckDigit

public final class ECNumberCheckDigit extends ModulusCheckDigit
Modulus 11 EC number Check Digit calculation/validation.

EC Numbers are a numeric codes. Check digit calculation is based on modulus 11 with digits being weighted based on their position (from left to right).
Note that these do not validate the input for syntax. Such validation is performed by the ECNumberValidator

Since:
1.9.0

    • LEN

      public static final int LEN
      EC number consists of 3 groups of numbers separated dashes (-). Example: dexamethasone is 200-003-9 The length without dashes.

    • getInstance

      public static CheckDigit getInstance()
      Gets the singleton instance of this validator.
      Returns:
      A singleton instance of the EC Number validator.
    • weightedValue

      protected int weightedValue(int charValue, int leftPos, int rightPos)
      Calculates the weighted value of a character in the code at a specified position.

      For EC number digits are weighted by their position from left to right.

      Specified by:
      weightedValue in class ModulusCheckDigit
      Parameters:
      charValue - The numeric value of the character.
      leftPos - The position of the character in the code, counting from left to right
      rightPos - The positionof the character in the code, counting from right to left
      Returns:
      The weighted value of the character.
    • calculate

      public String calculate(String code) throws CheckDigitException
      Calculate a modulus Check Digit for a code which does not yet have one.
      Specified by:
      calculate in interface CheckDigit
      Overrides:
      calculate in class ModulusCheckDigit
      Parameters:
      code - The code for which to calculate the Check Digit; the check digit should not be included
      Returns:
      The calculated Check Digit
      Throws:
      CheckDigitException - if an error occurs calculating the check digit
    • isValid

      public boolean isValid(String code)
      Validate a modulus check digit for a code.
      Specified by:
      isValid in interface CheckDigit
      Overrides:
      isValid in class ModulusCheckDigit
      Parameters:
      code - The code to validate
      Returns:
      true if the check digit is valid, otherwise false
