I'm using openFaces' dateChooser and I set a pattern. If I put in it a wrong value (like: 33/33/33) and try to submit the validationError is set to true because of the wrong format but I don't know how to get the specific error message or component that caused the validation error.
Here is a part of my code:
<o:dateChooser
id="DateColBtnGeneralView"
pattern="#{configurationController.defaultDateFormat}"
value="#{homeController.firstDate}">
<f:convertDateTime pattern="#{configurationController.defaultDateFormat}"/>
</o:dateChooser>
<o:commandButton
action="#{homeController.submitDates}"
onsuccess="contractClientDialogValidation(event)
value="Submit" />
function contractClientDialogValidation (event) {
if (event.validationError) {
alert("I want to show you the right error message according to the wrong value and component");
}
}
The validationError is set to true in case a required component is left empty or in case of an incorrect date format or in case an input number is too long or etc.
