[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Created: (BVAL-33) Should ConstraintDescriptor.getConstraintImplementation() replaced by .getConstraintImplementationClass()?

Should ConstraintDescriptor.getConstraintImplementation() replaced by .getConstraintImplementationClass()? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: BVAL-33 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/BVAL-33 Project: Bean Validation Issue Type: Improvement Components: spec-general Reporter: Emmanuel Bernard I don't see a use case for exposing the actual implementation instance, especially since Context has been added to the Constraint signature. ConstraintDescriptor could then be used as a metadata container between a Constraint resolution strategy and the BV core engine wo having to pass the constraintFactory as a dependency. It would also make CD serializable. -- 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
