Hi all,
I'm wondering whether it's legal that one constraint gets validated more than once during one validation operation. The spec seems a bit contradictory in this regard.
In section 4.6 "Validation routine" [1] it says:
"[...] this implies that a given validation
constraint will not be processed more than once per validation."
Section 4.6.1 "Object graph validation" says though:
"[...] object graph navigation can lead to multiple validations of
the same constraint and the same object instance but the set of
constraint validation is deterministic and the algorithm prevents
infinite loops."
What is right here? Or is this to say that *only* during graph validation a constraint may be validated multiple times but not e.g. during validation of multiple groups, all of which a constraint is part of?
Thanks,
