i have created this function to return validation object in orm model:

public static function get_validation(\Validation $val)
    {
        $val->add_callable('\Model_Tgpardakht');
        $val->add_field('user_id', 'User ID', 'required');
        $val->add_field('shserial', 'Shomare Serial', 'required|min_length[5]|max_length[20]|is_upper');
        return $val;
    }

also have this method in same model:

     public static function _validation_is_upper($value)
    {
        return $value === strtoupper($value);
    }

how i can set an error message for this method (inside _validation_in_upper function) if it returns false?

sorry , it is documented ,
i need just add one line code to _validation_is_upper,

     public static function _validation_is_upper($val)
    {
        validation::active()->set_message('is_upper','bluh bluh');
        return $val === strtoupper($val);
    }

and in controller i can use this for getting error messages:

        foreach($val->error() as $field => $error)
        {
            echo $error->get_message().'<br/>';
        }

One nice alternative way to do this is to copy fuel/core/lang/en/validation.php to fuel/app/lang/en/validation.php and then add your custom rule message to that. This way you can set your custom message in other languages, should you need to do so.

For example:

fuel/app/classes/passwordvalidation.php

<?php

class PasswordValidation
{
   public static function _validation_password($val)
   {
     return \Validation::_empty($val) || preg_match(\Config::get('regex.password'), $val) > 0;
   }

   public static function _validation_password_is_changed($val, $old_val)
   {
     return !($val === Validation::active()->input($old_val));
   }
}

fuel/app/lang/en/validation.php

<?php

return array(
// Overrides for standard validator messages
'required' => ':label must be completed.',

...

// Custom validation rules
'password' => ':label must contain at least one letter, at least one capital letter and at least one number.',
'password_is_changed' => ':label must be different from old password.'
);

We do the same. set_message() is more for one-time custom messages or messages you want to set from your custom validation rules which can't be in a global file, for example in case of module code.
