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: 2.1.0.A1, 2.0.3.CR1, 2.0.2.SP1
         Environment: Any
            Reporter: Richard Kennard
            Priority: Minor


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?
