Hi,
I'm not sure what's the current state regarding method references in
Java 8. If they're in, we might make use of them for property
validation:
validator.validateProperty(car, Car::getManufacturer);
validator.validateValue(Car::manufacturer, "Morris");
Or if we add one day an API for programmatic constraint definition
(example based on the API in HV):
ConstraintMapping mapping = new ConstraintMapping();
mapping.type( Car.class )
.property( Car::getManufacturer" )
.constraint( NotNull.class )
.constraint( Size.class ).with( Size::min, 2).with( Size::max, 14 );
That's just a quick thought, not sure whether that really works or
makes too much sense, though.
