Hi,

I'm looking for a way to silently validate an EditContext when using FluentValidation, i.e. Validate without generating ValidationMessages. This feature is quite useful, e.g. to disable/enable a submit button.

When using DataAnnotationsValidator this is possible by calling Validator.TryValidateObject() like:

bool FormIsValid() { var validationResults = new List<ValidationResult>(); var validationContext = new ValidationContext(EditContext.Model); Validator.TryValidateObject(EditContext.Model, validationContext, validationResults, true); return !validationResults.Any(); } 

Unfortunately I don't fully understand the way FluentValidation is hooked up into EditContext, but perhaps someone had an idea or already implemented something similiar and can get me on the right track.

Thanks in advance

Jake
