If you want to do it that way it's fine with me. Here is the code: http://fisheye.jboss.org/browse/JBossAS/branches/Branch_5_x/tomcat/src/ma... My thought was that we need to put the instance into JNDI anyway, so I might as well get it from there. I understand JNDI a lot better than MC. But if you want to do it using MC then you just need to change this method: | private void addBeanValidatorFactory() | { | this.servletContext.setAttribute(BeanValidator.VALIDATOR_FACTORY_KEY, Validation.buildDefaultValidatorFactory()); | } The ServletContext attribute must be set as shown, but we just need to get the VF instance that is created at deployment time instead of calling buildDefaultValidatorFactory(). If you decide to do it then please commit your code against this jira: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBAS-7178 Stan View the original post : http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4251201#...
