How to require all fields?

Question

I have a simple 3-field form, and I want to make all fields required. I have tried this:

<field name="name" required />

(Invalid XML)

and this:

<field name="name" attrs="{'required': [('id', '!=', False)]}" />

which gives this error:

Error: Unknown field id in domain [["id","!=",false]]

Every record gets an id on creation, right? So shouldn't the second version work? How do you make a field required at all times?

Hi Jeff,
Have you tried following approach

*<field name="name" required="1"/>*

Hope this helps :)

To make a field required, you can achieve by 2 methods:

*1. WITH PY*:
_columns = {
'name': fields.char("Name",size=64,required=1),
}

2. *WITH XML*: (Same as Jeff's Suggestion)
*         <field name="name" required="1"/>*

*NOTE: *If we make the field required at PYTHON file, no need to add required at XML.

*Error: Unknown field id in domain [["id","!=",false]]:
A domain can be set for the fields that are displayed on its own view.*

If you are trying to use domain = "[('categ_id','=',False)]"
