 * Abstract {@link Validator} implementation that provides a basic Validator
 * implementation except the {@link #isValidValue(Object)} method.
 * <p>
 * To include the value that failed validation in the exception message you can
 * use "{0}" in the error message. This will be replaced with the failed value
 * (converted to string using {@link #toString()}) or "null" if the value is
 * null.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * The default implementation of AbstractValidator does not support HTML in
 * error messages. To enable HTML support, override
 * {@link InvalidValueException#getHtmlMessage()} and throw such exceptions from
 * {@link #validate(Object)}.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * Since Vaadin 7, subclasses can either implement {@link #validate(Object)}
 * directly or implement {@link #isValidValue(Object)} when migrating legacy
 * applications. To check validity, {@link #validate(Object)} should be used.
