[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Resolved: (HV-554) Regular Expression for @Email

Regular Expression for @Email ------------------------------ Key: HV-554 URL: https://hibernate.onjira.com/browse/HV-554 Project: Hibernate Validator Issue Type: Improvement Components: validators Affects Versions: 4.2.0.Final Reporter: whardwick Assignee: Hardy Ferentschik Priority: Minor Labels: @Email, expression, regex, regexp, regular Fix For: 4.3.0.CR1 It would be nice if @Email allowed for a regular expression like @URL does. For example, we wanted to restrict emails to external addresses only (i.e. ending in .com, .net, etc.), but the @Email validation allows internal addresses as well, for example bob@mycompany instead of bob(a)mycompany.com. We had to write our own custom validation to handle this: {noformat} @Email(regexp="myRegexp") {noformat}
