hi gerald, the comment on stackoverflow might be about the property-validation module which supports cross-validation (without bv). you can get further details e.g. at the extval-chapter [1]. or they wrote a custom extval add-on (maybe based on my add-on).
in the bv-module of extval we could forward the needed information to the model-validation, but the possible support can get complicated (for users). (e.g. because you can have errors which can't be mapped back to a component.) regards, gerhard [1] http://s.apache.org/EXTVAL_Chapter http://www.irian.at Your JSF/JavaEE powerhouse - JavaEE Consulting, Development and Courses in English and German Professional Support for Apache MyFaces 2012/3/8 Gerald Turner <[email protected]> > Gerhard Petracek <[email protected]> writes: > > we could refactor [1] to support it. this add-on also performs the whole > > validation in the validation-phase ("similar" to the cross-validation > > module of extval itself). > > I'm confused.
