jQuery Validator - RequiredRule

Use this rule type to ensure the target editor value is specified. The rule will be broken in the following cases.

• If the validated value is null, false, or undefined.
• If the specified value has a type that is not expected for the target field (e.g., a string for the DateBox widget).

You do not have to specify this field. If you chose not to specify it, a default message will be shown. To include the name of the validated editor into the default validation message as a subject, set the name field of the dxValidator object.

If you assign an empty string to the message field, the message will not be shown.

To keep the Space characters within the validated value, set this field to false.

Set this field to "required" to define a rule that will be broken if the validated value is not specified.
