Constructor Detail

MzTabBeanValidator

public MzTabBeanValidator()

Default constructor. Fail fast validation is disabled.

MzTabBeanValidator

public MzTabBeanValidator(boolean failFast)

Constructor setting up the validator configuration and default constraint mapping.

Parameters:

failFast - if true, first validation error will terminate any further validation. If false, validation will continue and report all validation errors.

Method Detail

addConstraintAndValidator

public <A extends Annotation,T,V extends javax.validation.ConstraintValidator<A,T>> void addConstraintAndValidator(Class<A> constraintDefinition,
                                                                                                                                     Class<V> validator,
                                                                                                                                     boolean includeExistingValidators)

Allows registration of custom constraint / validator pairs on the validation configuration. This requires that the objects to be validated are annotated with the corresponding constraint definition.

Type Parameters:

A - The annotation marking elements that should be validated.

T - The Object type on which the validation should be performed.

V - The validator to use for the validation.

Parameters:

constraintDefinition - The annotation marking elements that should be validated.

validator - The validator to use for the validation.

includeExistingValidators - If true, existing validators for the same type will be applied, too. If false, only the registered validator will be retained for that type.

addConstraintAndValidator

public <A extends Annotation,T,V extends javax.validation.ConstraintValidator<A,T>> void addConstraintAndValidator(Class<T> typeToValidate,
                                                                                                                                     Class<A> constraintDefinition,
                                                                                                                                     Class<V> validator,
                                                                                                                                     boolean includeExistingValidators)

Allows registration of custom constraint / validator pairs on the validation configuration for a specific (unannotated) type.

Type Parameters:

A - The annotation marking elements that should be validated.

T - The Object type on which the validation should be performed.

V - The validator to use for the validation.

Parameters:

typeToValidate - The class/type that should be validated.

constraintDefinition - The annotation marking elements that should be validated.

validator - The validator to use for the validation.

includeExistingValidators - If true, existing validators for the same type will be applied, too. If false, only the registered validator will be retained for that type.
