Validation error displayed at android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout level?

[Narayane]

Hi,

I wonder if it is possible to annotate a TextInputLayout which contains a TextInputEditText with @notempty and use startLiveValidation mechanism in the same way than if I have annotated the TextInputEditText inside?

If not, is there any way to override default mechanism to set validation error at TextInputLayout level (the container) instead of annotated ui component (the content) to avoid this icons superposition problem?

Thanks.

A quick workaround to override default mechanism, extend SimpleToastCallback and override showValidationMessage() as this:

@Override protected void showValidationMessage(FormValidator.ValidationFail pValidationFail) { if (pValidationFail.view instanceof TextInputEditText) { final TextInputEditText vTextInputEditText = (TextInputEditText) pValidationFail.view; ((TextInputLayout) vTextInputEditText.getParent().getParent()).setError(pValidationFail.message); } }
