Validtion for non active record classes

Rails
1

Hi

  Can I use the active record validation for non active record

classes.
I have a class

class ServiceDeskResolutionEffort
attr_reader :days
attr_reader :hours
attr_reader :minutes

def initialize(data)
@passed_effort= data.split(’:’).collect! {|n| n}
@days = @passed_effort[0]
@hours = @passed_effort[1]
@minutes = @passed_effort[2]
end

end

In the view

In controller
#for exampleday:hour:min
@sd_resol = ServiceDeskResolutionEffort.new(“1:22:10”)

Here HOW CAN I IMPLEMENT VALIDATION THAT HOUR NOT GREATER THAN 23 AND
MINUTE NOT GREATER HAN 59 AND ALSO CHECK NON NUMERIC CHARACTERS NOT TO
BE ENTERED ALL THESE DAY:HOUR:MINUTE

Sijo

Day: <%= text_field :sd_resol, "days", "size" => 2 %> Hr: <%= text_field :sd_resol, "hours", "size" => 2 %> Min: <%= text_field :sd_resol, "minutes", "size" => 2 %>

Sorry sir A change is there i need the vallidation when i save …My
controller as

def sd_resolution_save
@sd_effort=params[:sd_resol][:days]+’:’+params[:sd_resol][:hours]+’:’+params[:sd_resol][:minutes]
@sd_resolution_id=params[:sd_resolution_id]
if @sd_resolution_id==nil
@service_desk_resolution=ServiceDeskResolution.new(params[:sd_resolution])
@service_desk_resolution.effort=@sd_effort
@service_desk_resolution.save
else
@sd_ticket_resolution=ServiceDeskResolution.find @sd_resolution_id
@sd_ticket_resolution.update_attribute(:effort,@sd_effort)
@update_sd_ticket_resolution=@sd_ticket_resolution.update_attributes(params[:sd_resolution])
end
redirect_to :action => ‘show_details’, :id => params[:id]
end

HERE BEFORE SAVING @service_desk_resolution.effort I NEED
VALIDATION…ALL THE OTHER SAME AS MY PROBLEM…AND PLEASE TELL ME HOW TO
CAPTURE THAT ERROR(IF EXISTS ALSO…Here ServiceDeskResolution is an
active record class

Hey,
Please find the code as follows.

class ServiceDeskResolutionEffort
attr_reader :seconds
attr_reader :hours
attr_reader :minutes

def initialize(data)
begin
@passed_effort= data.split(‘:’).collect! {|n| n}
hours = @passed_effort[0]
minutes = @passed_effort[1]
seconds = @passed_effort[2]
if /^(\d)(\d?)$/.match(hours) == nil || /^(\d)(\d)$/.match(minutes)

nil || /^(\d)(\d)$/.match(seconds) == nil
raise “Please enter the numeric value in time.”
elsif hours.to_i > 23 || minutes.to_i > 59 || seconds.to_i > 59
raise “Please enter the right rage of values.”
else
@hours = hours
@minutes = minutes
@seconds = seconds
end
rescue
puts $!
end
end

end

ServiceDeskResolutionEffort.new(“1:22:10”)
