[jbossseam-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Closed: (JBSEAM-3252) org.jboss.seam.core.Validators not JSF 1.1 compliant

org.jboss.seam.core.Validators not JSF 1.1 compliant ---------------------------------------------------- Key: JBSEAM-3252 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBSEAM-3252 Project: Seam Issue Type: Bug Components: Core Affects Versions: 2.0.2.SP1, 2.0.3.CR1, 2.1.0.A1 Environment: Any Reporter: Richard Kennard Assignee: Pete Muir Priority: Minor Original Estimate: 1 hour Remaining Estimate: 1 hour org.jboss.seam.core.Validators.validate() seems to work by: a) wrapping a custom ValidatingResolver over the existing ELContext b) calling setValue c) relying on setValue triggering ValidatingResolver.setValue d) ValidatingResolver.setValue calls Hibernate Validator This works fine if the ValueExpression is a com.sun.facelets.el.TagValueExpression, as created by Facelets or some other JSF 1.2 framework. However, if the ValueExpression is a javax.faces.component.ValueExpressionValueBindingAdapter (a compatibility wrapper from a JSF 1.1 component) then steps c) and d) do not happen: the value is set without going through ELContext or ValidatingResolver, and so passes successfully without ever being validated. Perhaps an earlier version of Seam used a JSF 1.1-based approach?
