Unexpected validation errors with relevant="false"

>
> Hi,
>
> <xforms:bind nodeset="./title" relevant="false()" required="true()" />
>
> For clarity purposes I removed xpath expression from relevant attribute.
> Above binding is throwing validation error if I submit with relevant="false"
> in submission handler(<xforms:submission relevant="false" ...../>). It
> should ignore required attribute when element is not relevant.
>
> I think following code is what is making it invalid. I think we should check
> if it is relevant before checking required attribute.
>
> XFormsModelBinds.java : Line 860
>
> // Current required value (computed during preceding recalculate)
> final boolean isRequired = InstanceData.getRequired(currentNodeInfo);
>
> // This is returning existingInstanceDate.required which is always true in
> my case.
> public static boolean getRequired(NodeInfo nodeInfo) {
>    final InstanceData existingInstanceData = getLocalInstanceData(nodeInfo,
> false);
>    return (existingInstanceData == null) ? DEFAULT_REQUIRED :
> existingInstanceData.required;
> }

> Please advice.

> I have a dropdown control which has two values; control1 and control2.
> I have two more controls on the page inputbox and textarea. When control1 is
> selected from the dropdown, I should display inputbox and if control2 is
> selected from dropdown I should display textarea.
>
> <xforms:instance id="social-media-pod-checkbox-instance">
>  <items>
>   <dropdown></dropdown>   // possible values are control1 and control2
>   <inputbox></inputbox>  // required
>   <textarea></textarea>  // required
>  </items>
> </xforms:instance>
>
> Lets consider a case where user selects control1 an inputbox is displayed.
> During edit user might choose to select control2 but if textarea node is
> pruned in the initial submit, there is no way for user to see the textarea.
