MaxLength Annotation

@MaxLength

The @MaxLength annotation may be applied to fields annotated with @Option and @Arguments to limit the length of the value provided e.g.

@Option(name = "--reference", arity = 1)
@MaxLength(length = 10)
private String reference;

Restricts the --reference option to values of at most 10 characters.

If you want to restrict the minimum length of a value then use the @MinLength annotation. For exact length restrictions use the @ExactLength annotation.
