Hardy Ferentschik commented on HV-301:
--------------------------------------
@NotEmpty is not solely for strings. It can also be applied on collections, maps, arrays
etc to test for emptiness. In all these cases a trimming flag does not make sense. See
also HV-35 (which is an issue from the legacy validator).
At best I could imagine a @NotBlank solely for strings.
add a trim property to @NotEmpty please.

Key: HV-301
URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HV-301
Project: Hibernate Validator
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: validators
Reporter: Ken Egervari
Assignee: Hardy Ferentschik
Fix For: 4.1.0-Beta-1
You can set to false to make sure not to break anything, but this makes life easier so
that it doesn't accept " " or "\n" and stuff like that, which to
most people, still means "empty" (I am pressed to find many cases where it does
not mean empty honestly).
