Form validation not working for Hibernate validation annotations when using Facelets composition components ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBSEAM-919 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBSEAM-919 Project: JBoss Seam Issue Type: Bug Components: Core Affects Versions: 1.1.6.GA Reporter: P B Attachments: facelets-composition-comp-validation.zip This was first reported in the ICEfaces forums (http://www.icefaces.org/JForum/posts/list/0/3825.page#17329), but seems to occur without ICEfaces. The Seam JSF Form validation does not happen for Hibernate annotated validations when using a Facelets composition component. When posting a form containing invalid values the validations that should occur for Seam components referenced in a Facelets composition component do not produce any ui error messages and instead cause the following sort of exception at EntityInsertAction.preInsert() stage: - Exception Exception during request processing: validation failed for: org.jboss.seam.example.booking.User org.hibernate.validator.event.ValidateEventListener.validate(ValidateEventListener.java:132) org.hibernate.validator.event.ValidateEventListener.onPreInsert(ValidateEventListener.java:156) org.hibernate.action.EntityInsertAction.preInsert(EntityInsertAction.java:139) org.hibernate.action.EntityInsertAction.execute(EntityInsertAction.java:44) org.hibernate.engine.ActionQueue.execute(ActionQueue.java:248) org.hibernate.engine.ActionQueue.executeActions(ActionQueue.java:232) org.hibernate.engine.ActionQueue.executeActions(ActionQueue.java:139) org.hibernate.event.def.AbstractFlushingEventListener.performExecutions(AbstractFlushingEventListener.java:298) org.hibernate.event.def.DefaultFlushEventListener.onFlush(DefaultFlushEventListener.java:27) org.hibernate.impl.SessionImpl.flush(SessionImpl.java:1000) org.hibernate.impl.SessionImpl.managedFlush(SessionImpl.java:338) org.hibernate.ejb.AbstractEntityManagerImpl$1.beforeCompletion(AbstractEntityManagerImpl.java:515) org.jboss.tm.TransactionImpl.doBeforeCompletion(TransactionImpl.java:1491) org.jboss.tm.TransactionImpl.beforePrepare(TransactionImpl.java:1110) org.jboss.tm.TransactionImpl.commit(TransactionImpl.java:324) org.jboss.tm.TxManager.commit(TxManager.java:240) Steps to reproduce: 1. drop the test case files in the booking example the test case defines a simple facelets composition component that shows an h:inputText, and uses it for the user name field on the register.xhtml page. 2. build the booking example 3. start the web app and navigate to the registration page 4. enter form values, leaving an invalid entry in the user name field 5. post the page, and an exception should be produced -- 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
