[jbossseam-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Closed: (JBSEAM-1981) enable validation on file upload component

enable validation on file upload component ------------------------------------------ Key: JBSEAM-1981 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBSEAM-1981 Project: Seam Issue Type: Patch Components: JSF Integration Reporter: Bruno Bieth Assignee: Shane Bryzak Attachments: UIFileUpload.java Currently file upload can't be validated. The attached patch allow to use the hibernate validation framework with byte[] attribute. You may have, for instance, to check if an uploaded file is an Image. About the patch : First the submittedValue is not set so the validation phase is skipped, second file upload doesn't use the standard "value" attribute (needed by the ModelValidator) but "data". To work you have to use a value attribute to your fileupload component. At the moment this work only with Facelets. For backward compatibility the data attribute is kept (but validation won't work).
