"pete.muir(a)jboss.org" wrote : Whats the message (aka where is it originating) Hi Pete, I was looking at one approach to doing custom validations, and testing out how the error messages show up. The approach in this system is the "form" and "action" style. I added messages in the action. Here is how it looks: | @Name("inspectionSearchAction") | @Scope(ScopeType.SESSION) | public class InspectionSearchActionImpl implements InspectionSearchAction { | | @Logger | Log log; | | @In | FacesMessages facesMessages; | | public void search() { | try { | facesMessages.addToControl("territoryNumber","territoryNumber"); | facesMessages.addToControl("riskControlRepNumber","riskControlRepNumber"); | facesMessages.addToControl("accountNumber","accountNumber"); | facesMessages.addToControl("selectedPriority","selectedPriority"); | facesMessages.addToControl("companyName","companyName"); | facesMessages.addToControl("selectedState","selectedState"); | facesMessages.addToControl("city","city"); | facesMessages.addToControl("county","county"); | facesMessages.addToControl("zipCode","zipCode"); | facesMessages.addToControl("surveyRangeStart","surveyRangeStart"); | facesMessages.addToControl("surveyRangeEnd","surveyRangeEnd"); | facesMessages.addToControl("inspectionCompleteRangeStart","inspectionCompleteRangeStart"); | facesMessages.addToControl("inspectionCompleteRangeEnd","inspectionCompleteRangeEnd"); | } catch (Exception e) { | log.error(e); | } | } | } | View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4060516#...
