[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Created: (HV-162) XML based configuration should be tolerant to line breaks and white spaces where appropriate

XML based configuration should be tolerant to line breaks and white spaces where appropriate -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: HV-162 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HV-162 Project: Hibernate Validator Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 4.0.0.Beta1 Reporter: Gunnar Morling Priority: Minor When using the XML based configuration approach, unnecessary line breaks can cause some trouble. Eclipse formatted a config file of mine as follows: ... <default-package>org.hibernate.validation.bugscenario </default-package> <bean class="Order" ignore-annotations="false"> ... which leads to a ClassNotFoundException: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.hibernate.validation.bugscenario .Order (note the line break after the package name), that is caught in XmlMappingParser, line 558 and rethrown as ValidationException. The problem goes away, if I format the package name as follows: <default-package>org.hibernate.validation.bugscenario</default-package> To make the XML based configuration more robust, trimming Strings such as the package name could be considered. This could be achieved by leveraging JAXB's CollapsedStringAdapter (https://jaxb.dev.java.net/nonav/2.1.11/docs/api/javax/xml/bind/annotation...). -- 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
