Return value when validation is successful?

[ajbeach2]

Im curious why there is no return value form the validates function when the validation succeeds. Is this the expected behavior?

Appears so-- On any failure, you get a ValidateException, so checking for a return value isn't really useful. Just wrap the call in a try/catch if you don't want it to bomb out on failure. In most cases, you wouldn't want the code to continue on failure anyway.
