             Summary: Support dependency injection within Bean Validation constraint validators
                 Key: CDI-241
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-241
             Project: CDI Specification Issues
          Issue Type: Feature Request
          Components: Java EE integration
            Reporter: Gunnar Morling


CDI should integrate with Bean Validation to support dependency injection within BV {{ConstraintValidator}} implementations.

>From the BV 1.1 [spec early draft|http://beanvalidation.org/1.1/spec/#bootstrapping-usageandcontainerexpectation]:

{quote}
Java EE should obey the rules defined above and enable Context and Dependency Injection (CDI) support to {{ValidatorFactory}} instances. In particular:

* Let {{Validator}} and {{ValidatorFactory}} object be injectable.
* Use a default {{ConstraintValidatorFactory}} implementation that returns CDI managed {{ConstraintValidator}} objects. The scope of these instances is dependent as the Bean Validation provider is responsible for them.
* Provide CDI managed instances of {{ConstraintValidatorFactory}}, {{MessageInterpolator}} and {{TraversableResovler}} if customized classes are requested in the XML deployment descriptor.
