Hi,

As shortly discussed before, Hibernate Validator has a dependency to EL as of Bean Validation 1.1 (HV 5.0). Bean Validation can be used in all kinds of applications, so we'd need an EL implementation which is generally available/visible, not only for web applications as is IMO currently the case.

In my local branch for updating the HV AS module to HV 5, I'm currently working around this by including the EL RI JARs into the HV module, but of course it would be better if there was a dedicated EL module upon which HV could depend.

Could you consider this when doing the update of the EL dependencies?

Thanks,

I think this makes sense, at least initially.

We should probably do some performance testing on it at some point
though, from some AS7 weld benchmarks that I have seen in the past the
EL implementation was often the bottle neck.

I know JUEL is often touted as a much faster implementation, but I don't
know if there are any plans to make it EL 3 compliant.
