Michael Kurz commented on MYFACES-2798:
---------------------------------------
Setting the default value to "auto" makes sense with bean validation in mind.
If you have bean validation on the class path "auto" will behave like "true"
and otherwise like "false".
> javax.faces.VALIDATE_EMPTY_FIELDS default should be 'true'

> Key: MYFACES-2798
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYFACES-2798
> Project: MyFaces Core
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: General
> Affects Versions: 2.0.2-SNAPSHOT
> Environment: Win XP, JDK 1.6.0.20, Maven 2.2.1, MyFaces trunk
> Reporter: Oliver Bayer
>
> First I thought the validation tags like e.g. <f:validateRequired /> or
> <f:validateLength /> aren't working. But during debugging I found out that
> the respective validation classes are called if at least one char is inserted.
> At the myfaces homepage
> (http://myfaces.apache.org/core20/myfaces-impl/webconfig.html) I've found
> that the default is "auto".
> I think it would be better to set the default to "true" because one would
> expect to get an exception if he leaves a required field blank which isn't
> the case if it's set to "auto".
