[richfaces-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (RF-12041) BeanValidator: no way to use BeanValidation with a custom config

BeanValidator: no way to use BeanValidation with a custom config ---------------------------------------------------------------- Key: RF-12041 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/RF-12041 Project: RichFaces Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Affects Versions: 3.3.3.Final Environment: Liferay 5.2.4, Portlet 2.0, JSF 1.2 Reporter: Markus Staab The BeanValidator class bootstraps a whole new BeanValidation context in its constructor: {code} BeanValidator() { // Enforce class to load ValidatorFactory.class.getName(); // Check Factory, to avoid instantiation errors // https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/RF-7226 validatorFactory = Validation .buildDefaultValidatorFactory(); validatorContext = validatorFactory.usingContext(); MessageInterpolator jsfMessageInterpolator = new JsfMessageInterpolator( validatorFactory.getMessageInterpolator()); validatorContext.messageInterpolator(jsfMessageInterpolator); } {code} because of this, there is no way to use the programmatic configuration feature of BeanValidation. I tried to pre-configure a custom MessageInterpolator with {code} Configuration<?> config = Validation.byDefaultProvider().configure(); config.messageInterpolator( new MyInterpolator() ); {code} but this configuration change is not taken into account by the BeanValidator of Richfaces. ATM the only way to achive this sort of customization is to use a META-INF/validation.xml
