[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Updated: (HV-567) @Email reported as "disallowed" for String field

@Email reported as "disallowed" for String field ------------------------------------------------ Key: HV-567 URL: https://hibernate.onjira.com/browse/HV-567 Project: Hibernate Validator Issue Type: Bug Components: annotation-processor Affects Versions: 4.3.0.Alpha1 Environment: Java 1.6, Windows 7, Maven 3.0.2 Reporter: Daniel Ford Assignee: Gunnar Morling Fix For: 4.3.0.Beta1 Upgrading from 4.2.0.Final to 4.3.0.Alpha1 caused the @Email annotation to be reported as "disallowed for this data type" for a String field. @NotEmpty @Email private String emailAddress; The annotation @Email is disallowed for this data type. This seems like a really weird bug as I would expect there is a unit test case that tests that @Email is processed correctly, so I'm pondering the value of expending the effort of creating just such a simple example as a test case. Any suggestions on things I can do on my side to narrow/explore this issue before I create a full blown example? I tried a few variations like adding another String field and trying that and got the same message (no surprise). Thanks! Dan
