Dynamic Validation?

[Dudley Dawson]

Hi- Is it possible to do something like this:

<h:dataTable value="#{beanList}" var="bean">
  <h:column>
    Enter your value for <h:outputText value="#{bean.name}"/>
  </h:column>
  <h:column>
    <h:inputText value="#{bean.value}">
       <f:validateDoubleRange minimum="#{bean.minimum}" maximum="#{bean.maximum}"/>
    </h:inputText>
  </h:column>
</h:dataTable>

No matter what i enter, the validator says that the value is not within the expected range 0.0 to 0.0, I guess that bean.minimum and bean.maximum are resolving to null. If I dump my entire list of beans to the page, I can see they are definitely not null. Can these properties be used in this way?

Thanks

Did you define public double getMaximum() and getMinimum methods on your backing bean? What do they return when called?

Thanks Tim.
yes, I've defined them in the bean. If I put the following code on the page:
<h:outputText value="#{beanlist}"/>
I've defined bean.toString() to call getMaximum() and getMinimum(), and I can see the that values are not null by accessing them in this fashion. Is there possible some problem with the rendering order? ie- validators are set before the bean values are populated, etc?
