Programatically set context variable to enable/disable bean validation

In my web.xml, I have this configuration entry:

<context-param>
   <param-name>javax.faces.validator.DISABLE_DEFAULT_BEAN_VALIDATOR</param-name>
   <param-value>true</param-value>
</context-param>

However, I don't want it to be always true. I want to set it true or false in my managed bean, depending on the situation. Is that possible?

No, that's the wrong way of solving the concrete problem. For that, the <f:validateBean> tag should actually be used instead.

You can use it on a per-view or per-form basis, most self-documenting would be to just wrap it around the <h:form>. The <h:form> in turn can be just in a template client (and the <f:validateBean> thus in the master template).

<f:validateBean disabled="true">
    <h:form>

    </h:form>
</f:validateBean>

You can even use EL in there.

<f:validateBean disabled="#{settings.beanValidationDisabled}">
