How to evaluate a FacesComponent property inside a custom component - jsf

Question

Lately, I've been working on a dynamic form project but is stop with a custom component problem. What I have:
A faces component for formField:
#FacesComponent(value = "formField")
public class FormFieldCompositeComponent {
private boolean email;
}
A custom component jsf:
<o:validator for="email_text" validatorId="emailValidator" disabled="#{not cc.email}" />
OR
<c:if test="#{not cc.email}">
<f:validator for="email_text" validatorId="emailValidator"></f:validator>
</c:if>
OR
<f:validator disabled="#{not cc.email}" for="email_text" validatorId="emailValidator"></f:validator>
And the validator:
#FacesValidator("emailValidator")
public class EmailValidator implements Validator { }
My problems are:
1.) If I use an ordinary f:validator, like the one I use above and then use c:if to enable/disable it, then it will not work. According to some articles I've read it's because f:validator validates on build time, not on render time.
2.) If I use o:validator, it works but the problem is every time you hit submit a new line of invalid email error is added to p:messages. Example I clicked submit button 3 times, then I get 3 times the email error.
Any idea?
More info (anatomy of the project)
Example I have a page user with field email, it will include the following custom components:
+user.xhtml
+formPanel
+formField (this is where the validator is defined)
+formButtons (the action button)
+p:messages is defined
user.xhtml
<formPanel>
<formField field="email" />
<formButtons />
</formPanel>
Command button is like (formButtons):
<p:commandButton id="saveButton" rendered="#{cc.attrs.edit}"
value="#{messages['action.save']}"
action="#{cc.attrs.backingBean.saveOrUpdate()}" icon="ui-icon-check"
ajax="#{cc.attrs.ajaxSubmit}">
<c:if test="#{cc.attrs.backingBean.lcid != null}">
<f:param name="cid" value="#{cc.attrs.backingBean.lcid}" />
</c:if>
</p:commandButton>
The p:messages as defined on formPanel:
<p:messages id="formMessages" showDetail="true" showSummary="false" redisplay="false"></p:messages>
Note:
1.) What I've noticed is that the validator is called n times, where n is the number of submit or click done.

Seems like there's no chance for the f:validator so I push through o:validator and come up with a workaround. Need to catch if the error is already in the FacesMessages list:
boolean match = false;
for (FacesMessage fm : context.getMessageList()) {
if (fm.getDetail().equals(message)
|| fm.getSummary().equals(message)) {
match = true;
break;
}
}
if (!match) {
throw new ValidatorException(facesMessage);
}
