Using FormattedTextField for US Phone Number validation about jidefx-oss

Thanks. I am glad you like it.

I don't think you need NumberRangePatternVerifier for phone numbers. US Phone number is a relatively simple case. We ever have a static method to create such a field in MaskTextField.

/**
 * A static method which will create a MaskTextField for Phone Number in US and Canada. The InputMask for it is
 * "[phone]". The ConversionMask and the RequiredMask are not set which means no conversion and all positions
 * are required.
 *
 * @return a MaskTextField for a Phone Number in US and Canada.
 */
public static MaskTextField createPhoneNumberField() {
    MaskTextField field = new MaskTextField();
    field.setInputMask("[phone]");
    return field;
}

NumberRangePatternVerifier is used in FormattedTextField. You basically associate it with a group name.

For the phone number, you can do something like this.

    FormattedTextField<String> field = new FormattedTextField<>();
    field.getPatternVerifiers().put("a", new IntegerRangePatternVerifier(0, 999, true));
    field.getPatternVerifiers().put("b", new IntegerRangePatternVerifier(0, 999, true));
    field.getPatternVerifiers().put("c", new IntegerRangePatternVerifier(0, 9999, true));
    field.setPattern("a-b-c");
