[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Moved: (HV-7) Two level @Valid annotation doesn't work

Two level @Valid annotation doesn't work ----------------------------------------- Key: HV-7 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HV-7 Project: Hibernate Validator Type: Bug

Components: engine Versions: Bundle 3.2.1 Environment: hibernate-annotations 3.2.1.ga Reporter: Rakesh Kalra Assignee: Emmanuel Bernard Fix For: FIRST

Original Estimate: 1 hour Remaining: 1 hour I have object depth of 3: Form, Member, Address. I get the following exception when initializing ClassValidator: java.lang.NullPointerException at org.hibernate.validator.ClassValidator.<init>(ClassValidator.java:142) at org.hibernate.validator.ClassValidator.createChildValidator(ClassValidator.java:252) at org.hibernate.validator.ClassValidator.initValidator(ClassValidator.java:216) at org.hibernate.validator.ClassValidator.<init>(ClassValidator.java:149) at org.hibernate.validator.ClassValidator.createChildValidator(ClassValidator.java:252) at org.hibernate.validator.ClassValidator.initValidator(ClassValidator.java:216) at org.hibernate.validator.ClassValidator.<init>(ClassValidator.java:134) at org.hibernate.validator.ClassValidator.<init>(ClassValidator.java:105) at org.hibernate.validator.ClassValidator.<init>(ClassValidator.java:97) ... This works fine with 3.2.0.ga. I think the problem is in the following constructor, where instance level "reflectionManager" is not being initialized. protected ClassValidator( XClass beanXClass, ResourceBundle resourceBundle, MessageInterpolator userInterpolator, Map<XClass, ClassValidator> childClassValidators, ReflectionManager reflectionManager ) { this.beanClass = reflectionManager.toClass( beanXClass ); this.messageBundle = resourceBundle == null ? getDefaultResourceBundle() : resourceBundle; this.defaultMessageBundle = ResourceBundle.getBundle( DEFAULT_VALIDATOR_MESSAGE ); this.userInterpolator = userInterpolator; this.childClassValidators = childClassValidators; initValidator( beanXClass, childClassValidators ); } The other constructor initializes reflectionManager.
