How to pass parameters to a validator of a rich:inplaceInput component

Question

Hello

I've seen BalusC's page on passing values to a validator but that is using inputText components. I'm using rich:inplaceInput components and it doesn't seem to work. Can someone tell me if it is possible, and if it is how to do simply?

Thanks

For sure you can add validators to rich:inplaceEdit. Here is an example:

<rich:inplaceEdit required="true" value="#{myBean.name}">
  <f:validateLength minimum="3" maximum="25" />
</rich:inplaceEdit>

This validates that the field is filled in (required="true") and that the entered text has a length between 3 and 25 characters ().

If you don't see any error message make sure you have a message component that displays your error message and that is properly updated.
