parseConstraints

public static java.util.Map<java.lang.String,java.util.List<ConstraintInput>> parseConstraints(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request)
                                                                                              throws Templates.TemplateValueParseException

Parameters:

request - HTTP request by user

Returns:

map of constraints and values to be used to populate template.

Throws:
