[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Resolved: (HV-513) URL validator rejects protocols the JVM does not know about

URL validator rejects protocols the JVM does not know about ----------------------------------------------------------- Key: HV-513 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HV-513 Project: Hibernate Validator Issue Type: Bug Components: validators Affects Versions: 4.1.0.Final, 4.2.0.Final Reporter: Pasi Eronen URLValidator uses java.net.URL(String) constructor to check whether an URL is valid. However, this constructor rejects a protocol unless the JVM has an URLStreamHandler for it. So perfectly valid URLs such as "ldap://localhost/ou=Foo" and "sip:alice@example.com" are rejected.
