"java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: java.lang.String.isEmpty" in ScriptAssertValidator.java ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: HV-382 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HV-382 Project: Hibernate Validator Issue Type: Bug Components: validators Affects Versions: 4.1.0.Final Environment: Hibernate 3.5.3-Final Hibernate Annotations 3.5.3-Final Hibernate Commons Annotations 3.2.0.Final Hibernate Validator 4.1.0.Final Bytecode provider name : javassist RDBMS: Oracle, version: Oracle9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.4.0 - Production With the Partitioning, Oracle Label Security, OLAP and Oracle Data Mining options JServer Release 9.2.0.4.0 - Production JDBC driver: Oracle JDBC driver, version: 10.1.0.5.0 Reporter: Jose David Barrio Assignee: Hardy Ferentschik Fix For: 4.2.0 Original Estimate: 10m Remaining Estimate: 10m The annotation {{@ScriptAssert}} created under HV-292 doesn't work under Java 5, it requires Java 6. The reason is that the file {{[hibernate-validator/src/main/java/org/hibernate/validator/constraints/impl/ScriptAssertValidator.java|http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/hibernate/validator/trunk/hibernate-validator/src/main/java/org/hibernate/validator/constraints/impl/ScriptAssertValidator.java]}} makes use of {{java.lang.String.isEmpty()}} method to validate that fields {{script}}, {{lang}} and {{alias}} are not empty. It should by changed to {{java.lang.String.length()}} like other annotations do.
