Whenever I try and capture validation events for a particular component in
beaneditor / beaneditform, I fail. I can catch the whole form, but not the
individual components, anyone know why?
I've got a form with a beaneditor in it, and I've added a field of my own,
'sponsor', but it also contains a bean with a number of fields, including
"backgroundUrl". I couldn't find many specifics about the component ids
used by beaneditor fields, but the HTML implies that backgroundUrl gets a
/client id/ of 'background url' at least. I made a simple event handler
method that always throws a ValidationException just for testing.
The following methods trigger a validation error:
- @OnEvent("validate") validate(EventContext)
- @OnEvent(value="validate",component="sponsor") validate(EventContext)
- onValidateForm(EventContext)
- onValidateFromSponsor(EventContext)
The following don't:
- @OnEvent(value="validate",component="backgroundUrl")
validate(EventContext)
- onValidateFromBackgroundUrl(EventContext)
- onValidateFromBackgroundurl(EventContext)
In searching the mailing list, I'm finding other people having trouble
validating, and other people who don't know what component id they're
getting in a beaneditform, but no-one with answers. ;)
So ... what am I missing? I'm sure it's simple, but I'm struggling with it
nonetheless.
