Can anyone help me with this?

By adding the @RequiredField annotation to the relationship field
(status in my example below) the form did not submit, which is good
because the status had not been specified from the list. However, the
form did not present a message too the user saying why the form
submission failed.  I have the field annotated as:


@ManyToOne(cascade = {CascadeType.PERSIST, CascadeType.MERGE},
fetch=FetchType.EAGER)
@JoinColumn(name = "STATUS")
@RequiredFieldValidator(message="Validation
Error",key="validate.notEmpty")
public Status getStatus() {
        return status;
} 

Any reply would be appreciated.

Best Regards,

MG

Ok, So I am being a bone-head.  

When I added the @RequiredStringValidator to the model, the validation
is in sync with what is being required on the form. That makes sense to
me, but... 

How are relationships handled? I have a form control as such:

<s:select key="component.status" name="selectedStatus" required="true"
tabindex="12"
                               headerKey="-1"
                               headerValue="-- Select Status --"
                               list="statusList"
                               listKey="id"
                               value="%{status.id}"
                               listValue="description"/>

And the relationship is being managed via a JPA @ManyToOne(cascade =
{CascadeType.PERSIST, CascadeType.MERGE},
fetch=FetchType.EAGER)
@JoinColumn(name = "STATUS")
public Status getStatus() {
        return status;
}

What sort of annotation should I use to validate the user selected an
item from the list?

Any reply is appreciated...

The required attribute only paints the asterisk -- it has nothing to do
with actually "requiring" input.  Nice huh?

Peace,
