Hi,
I think there is another error in the Validator javadoc. Probably a
cut&paste error
* @throws IllegalArgumentException if object is null, if propertyName
null, empty
* or not a valid object property
* or if null is passed to the varargs
groups
* @throws ValidationException if a non recoverable error happens
* during the validation process
*/
<T> Set<ConstraintViolation<T>> validateValue(Class<T> beanType,
String
propertyName, Object value, Class<?>... groups);
IllegalArgumentException if object is null seems to be wrong. Probably
should be "if beanType is null". null as value seems to be a valid case.
