Validate login and password fields.
These fields cannot be null or empty.
If the validation process finds problems, it returns an ActionErrors instance containing ActionError's, which are classes that contain the error message keys (into the application's MessageResources bundle) that should be displayed.
The controller servlet will store this array as a request attribute suitable for use by the tag, and will forward control back to the input form (identified by the input property for this ActionMapping).

Parameters:

mapping - the ActionMapping object.

request - the HttpServletRequest object.

Returns:

a collection of errors.
