[jbossseam-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBSEAM-1262) Should be able to customize Hibernate validation messages based on context (by page, or role like Seam component scopes)

[ http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBSEAM-1262?page=comments#action_12360924 ] Keith Naas commented on JBSEAM-1262: ------------------------------------ We solved this by customizing the decorate tag. For each of the processXxx methods, we setup, call the real method, and tear it down. In the setup we simply put the "label" into the request map. The teardown removes it. The label is either an attribute that the user puts into the decorate element, or if unspecified defaults to the id of the UIComponent. This way, when the resource bundle is accessed by the validator, it will plug the label string into it. This works well regardless of which technology we use. For instance our bundle looks like this. # Please note that these override the defaults set by the JSF implementation ## BEGIN JSF override javax.faces.converter.BigDecimalConverter.DECIMAL=#{label} is not a valid entry. javax.faces.converter.BigDecimalConverter.DECIMAL_detail=* javax.faces.validator.DoubleRangeValidator.MINIMUM=#{label} must be greater than or equal to {0}. javax.faces.validator.DoubleRangeValidator.MINIMUM_detail=* javax.faces.validator.DoubleRangeValidator.MAXIMUM=#{label} must be less than or equal to {0}. javax.faces.validator.DoubleRangeValidator.MAXIMUM_detail=* .... ## END JSF Override ## Begin Hibernate Validator override validator.assertFalse=#{label} is not a valid entry. validator.length=#{label} must be between {min} and {max} characters. validator.max=#{label} must be less than or equal to {value}. validator.min=#{label} must be greater than or equal to {value}. .... ## End Hibernate Validator override -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
