<div dir="ltr">As Hardy said, these new data types should be supported in the next BV revision. HV-825 is our testing bed for bringing the new functionalities from Java 8 to the world of Bean Validation; If you have any ideas around this make sure to let us know.<div>
<br></div><div>Related to that, I think it should be simpler to add additional constraints in a "global" manner than it is today. One possible way would be to support registering validator implementations using the service loader SPI, by providing a file META-INF/services/javax.validation.ConstraintValidator which lists additional implementations. This avoids the XML and allows to add a JAR with validators to an application without further need for registration.</div>

<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">Hi Markus,<br>
<br>
thanks for your feedback. Supporting new Java 8 data types seems to be a good candidate for<br>
the next iteration of the Bean Validation spec. If this version will align with Java 8, there are other<br>
candidates as well. For example the ability to annotate collection elements (List<@Min(4) String> foo)<br>
or handling the validation of @Optional values.<br>
<br>
At the moment the plan for an new spec release are still in the making. However, in Hibenrate Validator<br>
we already started the work on supporting Java 8 [1], including the new date and time types [2].<br>
Hibernate Validator 5.2 should make this functionality available, probably well before there will be a new spec version.<br>
Once HV 5.2 is available you should be able to upgrade even without a new version of the Bean Validation spec.<br>
