[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Commented: (BVAL-192) Add 'exclusive' boolean attribute to @DecimalMin/@DecimalMax constraints

Add 'exclusive' boolean attribute to @DecimalMin/@DecimalMax constraints ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Key: BVAL-192 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/BVAL-192 Project: Bean Validation Issue Type: Improvement Components: spec-general Affects Versions: 1.0 final Environment: Hibernate Validator 4.0.0.GA Reporter: Jaro Kuruc Attachments: patch.patch Hi, may I suggest to enhance @DecimalMin/@DecimalMax constraints with additional 'exclusive' boolean attribute? This would allow to define a constraints like: a positive non-zero decimal number @DecimalMin(value = "0.0", exclusive = true) a negative non-zero decimal number @DecimalMax(value = "0.0", exclusive = true) This makes sense when dealing with decimal numbers where one might want to allow a number regardless of the precision. @DecimalMin("0.0001") vs. @DecimalMin("0.000000001"), etc. To maintain backward compatibility, default value for new 'exclusive' boolean attribute should be false.
