Sandro Martini commented on PIVOT-758:
--------------------------------------
Extract from discussion in Mailing List:
> This would only work if all form fields were guaranteed to be TextInputs,
> which they are not.
> There is no way to generically ensure that a "required" field has a value,
> because there is no API in Component such as "hasValue():boolean" (nor do I
> think there should be).
All the Form "required" stuff should be removed in 2.0.1 final, so for for the
2.1:
if (opt., only when desired) use validators in all input elements (text, date,
etc), verify if it makes sense to implement a way to let application developers
to use a Form method to call all validators of its elements and collect all
results.
And probably even this issue could be renamed ...
