Editor framework - return error from proprietary server validation (not requestfactory)

[leemon]

I am using the Editor framework combined with a proprietary rest-based back end. The objects returned from my back end service may contain validation errors (though not JSR 303 style errors). If I want to display these errors in my editor, do I just create my own implementation of ConstraintViolation and convert my own error format to a list of those?

I'm guessing the flow is:

1. user clicks save

2. call driver.flush()

3. if no errors, persist object to server

4. server returns object w/validation errors

5. call driver.setConstraintViolations(myViolations);

6. call driver.edit(myObject);

Is there anything else I need to do? Will this interfere with client-side validations?

thanks

I figured this out. I needed to call driver.edit(myObject), then call driver.setConstraintViolations(myViolations)
