Bruno Aranda commented on MYFACES-279:
--------------------------------------
Although it can be very helpful for developers when they debug their
applications ;-) , I think that a 'technical' message can create confusion in
the standard application user (depending on the targeted users, of course ;-)).
It is more helpful to a user to have a comment next to the inputText that says
something like "Value must follow pattern 00-XXXX" than an error message that
says "The submitted value ({0}) doesn't fit the pattern \d{2}-\D{4}". You can
always localize the messages for your situation. As what you need for the
message to be shown is the pattern as an argument, I see well the change in the
Validator, but I would keep the current myfaces messages and override them when
necessary.
Please, could you create the patch using svn diff instead of copying the
modified files? This will make things easier for the commiters...
Regards,
Bruno

> The submitted value ({0}) doesn't fit the pattern "{1}".
> Because this gives the user and the developer a more detailed information

> However, I changed the code of RegExprValidator and the german, english and
> standard message properties so that the pattern is shown in the error-message.
