Re: [bv-dev] Spec question on constructors
Hi Matt,
I agree that this sentence shouldn't be there in the JavaDoc; I reckon
it's a copy & paste mistake from getConstraintsForMethod().
Indeed the RI doesn't return a descriptor for a super-type
constructor. Do you know whether it's the same for Apache BVal? If so
I think we should remove the sentence from the JavaDoc. I don't see it
as a migration concern if no certified impl ever implemented that
behaviour.

The last paragraph of section 5.6.5 states that inheritance rules do
not apply to constructors as these are not inherited. However, the
Javadoc of BeanDescriptor#getConstraintsForConstructor(Class<?>...)
says "Constructor of super types are considered." While it could be
possible to implement this, what would be the point? These notions
feel at odds with one another.
Thanks,
Matt
