Af:validator fires all validation in a view

Question

Hi,
I have a transaction that span many pages using a process train and I also have defined entity validation rules. I want to validate input fields on my form using af:validator. However all validation rules in my entity are fired. How can I validate only the fields displayed on the current page?
I'm using jdev 10.1.3

You can override the error handler and throw a JboWarning and then process these using reportException method.
public void reportException(DCBindingContainer bc, java.lang.Exception ex) {
        logger.info("entering reportException() method");
        BindingContext ctx = bc.getBindingContext();
        String err_code;
        err_code = null;
        if (ex instanceof JboWarning) {
                FacesMessage facesMessage = new FacesMessage(ex.getMessage());
                facesMessage.setSeverity(FacesMessage.SEVERITY_WARNING);
                JSFUtil.addGlobalMessage(facesMessage);
}
