The constraint violation builder cannot put constraint on a top level map key ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: BVAL-221 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/BVAL-221 Project: Bean Validation Issue Type: Bug Components: spec-general Reporter: Emmanuel Bernard Fix For: 1.1 This is a minor thing and maybe tunnel-visioned (I don't know much about the other beans-related specs), but if I do something like this in a ConstraintValidator: {code} public boolean isValid(Map<String, String> target, ConstraintValidatorContext context) { context.buildConstraintViolationWithTemplate("oh noes") .addNode(somekey) .addConstraintViolation(); return false; } {code} It would be nice if that resulted in a violation at path someobject.mapproperty[somekey] rather than someobject.mapproperty.somekey. -- 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
