Client side validation

[gonzalad]

Hello,

This question must already have been posted, but don't find the topic.

Is Seam going to support client side validation for some controls based on hibernate validator annotations (i.e. via javascript) ?

I know we can already do AJAX control (ajax4jsf), but for some apps I don't wan't to go all the way down to my app server.

Thank you very much for your help

Nothing is planned at this stage - however, we realize that this is a feature many people want.

Thank you very much for the quick reply !

Sorry,

Do you think I should fill a JIRA request for this functionnality ?

Probably a good idea to add it to Seam JIRA, that way people can vote for it and it doesn't slip off the radar completely.

If you need something sooner, Trinidad has client side validation for all JSF validators (and some of its own).

Sorry sorry, forgot to raise JIRA issue.

Here it is : http://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBSEAM-1906

N.B : it's priority is Major status, don't think this is allright.

Yes, I am using Trinidad. Yet now again I have to specify my constraints in
two different places. Exactly what seam validation aims to void.

Maybe Seam can "borrow" the Trinidad javascript.
Or maybe there could be some hooks to integrate the two closer.
