Hi,
I try to generate a formular with JSF 2.01 and I want to use the regex validator for my input. The regex changes according to a value in the bean. But I can't realize it in JSF... I tried the following code:
<ui:repeat value="#{GrammarBean.indexOfInputs}" var="indexOfInputs">
<h:inputText id="input" label="#{GrammarBean.namesOfInputs[indexOfInputs]}"
value="#{GrammarBean.inputs[indexOfInputs]}" required="true">
<f:validateRegex pattern="#{GrammarBean.regEx[indexOfInputs]}" />
</h:inputText>
<h:message for="input" styleClass="errorMessage" /><br/>
</ui:repeat>
But this generates the ErrorMessage "Regex pattern must be set to non-empty value."
everything workes fine if I changed <f:validateRegex pattern="#{GrammarBean.regEx[indexOfInputs]}" /> to <f:validateRegex pattern="#{GrammarBean.regEx[0]}" />. But this should be the same for my example. I already checked that indexOfInputs is 0 and #{GrammarBean.regEx[indexOfInputs]} is "[a-z]*". This must be a bug in the JSF API.
