[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Commented: (HV-274) Write a programmatic mapping API for constraint declarations

[ http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HV-274?page=com... ] Emmanuel Bernard commented on HV-274: ------------------------------------- {quote} Probably possible, but I would not go there. You still need the generic approach for custom constraints. Also a wrong constraint definition will fail immediately at startup of the application. I think that's fair enough. {quote} What's bothering you with the type-safe alternative? You've got to admit it's much more readable than the string oriented API (esp if you hardcode built-in ones) -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/secure/Administrators.... - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
