[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Commented: (HV-43) Hibernate Validator could load JPA annotations for validation

Hibernate Validator could load JPA annotations for validation ------------------------------------------------------------- Key: HV-43 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HV-43 Project: Hibernate Validator Issue Type: Improvement Affects Versions: 3.0.0.ga, 3.0.1 Reporter: Leonardo Pinho Priority: Critical Hibernate Validator could load JPA annotations fields for validation, like at @Column (javax.persistence.Column): public class Test { @Column(name="NAME", length=40, nullable=false) private String name; } Otherwise I have to change the code to: public class Test { @NotNull @Length(max=40) @Column(name="NAME", length=40, nullable=false) private String name; } And I got a redundant code... :(
