javax.faces.VALIDATE_EMPTY_FIELDS default should be 'true' ----------------------------------------------------------
Key: MYFACES-2798 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYFACES-2798 Project: MyFaces Core Issue Type: Improvement Components: General Affects Versions: 2.0.2-SNAPSHOT Environment: Win XP, JDK 1.6.0.20, Maven 2.2.1, MyFaces trunk Reporter: Oliver Bayer First I thought the validation tags like e.g. <f:validateRequired /> or <f:validateLength /> aren't working. But during debugging I found out that the respective validation classes are called if at least one char is inserted. At the myfaces homepage (http://myfaces.apache.org/core20/myfaces-impl/webconfig.html) I've found that the default is "auto". I think it would be better to set the default to "true" because one would expect to get an exception if he leaves a required field blank which isn't the case if it's set to "auto". -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
