Using
#fields.detailedErrors()
with spring-webflow 2.3.1 will call its org.springframework.webflow.mvc.view.BindingModel.getFieldErrors(java.lang.String) with "" as argument. However specifing "" leads to the error that a non-empty prefix is expected; calling the parameter-less version works as expected.I checked back into the repository and the behaviour is unchanged since 2.3.1:
getFieldErrors(java.lang.String)
delegates callsnew FieldPrefixErrorMessage(String)
when the input ends in *, removing the last characternew FieldPrefixErrorMessage(String)
then asserts that a non-empty prefix is given, which will result in an exception as the only character was removed.Feel free to propose another fix, but from what I see in spring-webflow's BindingModel there are not many other approaches. Probably calling
getAllErrors()
would also be an option, too.
