The Entity Reference View Widget ignores the setting of the 'Required' checkbox on the field settings form and allows a node to be saved with no entity reference selected. I tested and confirmed this issue on a vanilla Drupal 7.17 setup with only this module's dependencies installed.

Same problem here with the 7.x-1.x-dev-Version. I can't even find where the problem could come from. Any help would be appreciated.

Attached is a quick patch which fixes the issue.

It would probably be better to figure out what's really causing the problem here though.

Here is a version with some code cleaned and comments.

Hmm it's not enough, if you use ajax filters it breaks the "required" check.

The patch from #4 is not working. it's not allow passing of form validation.
Even if entity reference option selected, it is not allowing form submit, and
asking to select option.
