facesContext.validationFailed is coming back null












0















For what reason facesContext.validationFailed could be null? (in a postBack where there are errors..)
I had to resort to an ugly if (#{fn:containsIgnoreCase(facesContext.maximumSeverity,'ERROR')}) showSecurePopup('confirm'); because facesContext.validationFailed is coming back null..



the test code is:



<h:form>
<h:messages />
<br></br>

<h:outputText value="Validation failed: #{facesContext.validationFailed}" />
<br></br>

<h:outputLabel for="field1" value="Test Field" />
<br></br>

<h:inputText required="true" />

<h:commandButton action="#{contactBacking.submitComment}" value="Submit"
<f:ajax render="@form" execute="@form" />
</h:commandButton>
</h:form>


EDIT: Edited as per @BalusC's answer.. and took screenshot of result:

          The FacesContext#isValidationFailed() returns a boolean which is never null. Just get rid of that nonsensicial nullcheck.

          • True as your comment might be.. the result is still the same.. I actually know this works for a fact, I have used this in other projects, I actually also know that validation errors are being raised since I´m using them in a custom component.. I can´t really figure out why this might be happening...
