desribe path with an object model --------------------------------- Key: BVAL-143 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/BVAL-143 Project: Bean Validation Issue Type: Improvement Components: spec-general Affects Versions: 1.0 proposed final draft Reporter: Emmanuel Bernard Priority: Minor path are today strings with dot separating properties. But it break when Set or Iterable are used. We could replace that with --- First strawman, must evolve -- class PathElement { String getName(); PathElement getParentPath(); boolean isIterable(); boolean isIndexed(); Object getIndex(); //TODO int getIndex()? // not happy about that as it is only useful for Constraintciolation PathElement getChild(); } PathElement would be used for Constraintvuilation, maybe CVContext etc can this be refactored using inheritance + generics to have an IndexedPathElement only when it matters (probably no unfortunately) -- 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
