[jbossseam-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Closed: (JBSEAM-3118) Unclear ItemValidator example in reference (31.2)

Unclear ItemValidator example in reference (31.2) ------------------------------------------------- Key: JBSEAM-3118 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBSEAM-3118 Project: Seam Issue Type: Bug Components: Documentation Issues Affects Versions: 2.1.0.A1 Reporter: Richard Richter Assignee: Pete Muir Priority: Minor Fix For: 2.0.3.CR2, 2.1.0.BETA1 In section 31.2 of Seam reference (2.1 version) there is an example which is not very clear: @Name("itemValidator") @BypassInterceptors @Validator public class ItemValidator implements Validator { public void validate(FacesContext context, UIComponent cmp, Object value) throws ValidatorException { ItemController ItemController = (ItemController) Component.getInstance("itemController"); return itemController.validate(value); } } First thing is that if you accept one import for Validator, the other usage of that type is broken - there are both Hibernate Validator annotation and JSF Validator interface used (I'd use FQN for this one probably). Other thing is that there is return of something for void method. Example is rather confusing as it is now.
