SEAM @Validator question

[garcimouche]

I have a SEAM component acting as a JSF Validator with the @Validator annotation. However I've got an error when I referenced it through EL. (I have a similar impl. with a converter that's working fine).

the error

EntryEdit.xhtml @63,138 validator="#{carrierCodeValidator}": Identity 'carrierCodeValidator' does not reference a MethodExpression instance, returned type: com.xxxxxxx.validator.CarrierCodeValidator

Use in your validator component:

...
@Validator(id="customValidator")

...

and in xhtml:

...
<h:inputText ... >
  <f:validator validatorId="customValidator" />
</h:inputText>
...

If you want to use the validator directly in <h:inputText ... /> tah just use it like this:

<h:inputText ... validator="customValidator" />

it shouldn't be used like EL expression
