Re: [resteasy-dev] resteasy jax-rs fail fast on entity validation exception

Ron, I agree with your thinking. I think that we do need to check the parameters when the endpoint is called, and throw an appropriate exception. I have opened a jira : https://issues.jboss.org/projects/RESTEASY/issues/RESTEASY-1749 I can create a test in the testsuite, would this need to be in the current master branch?

Hmmm. @Stateless, so it doesn't have @Request scope; i.e., it's created just once. I conjecture you wouldn't see this problem for a @Stateful session bean. > In the application the pusdo PolicyHolderEndpoint class is also a > managed bean that is injected into other services as a single > entry point for managing policyHolders. > Is it reasonable to expect a rest endpoint can also be defined as > an ejb managed bean?

The CDI spec says we have to accumulate as many violations as possible before throwing an exception,so, in general, we still have to proceed to check field / property violations. BUT ... I think the scope is the source of the problem. If an EJB session bean is created just once, then field / parameter injections should be checked only once. On subsequent calls, it does, as you say, make sense to stop and throw an exception after checking parameters. SO ... if my reasoning makes sense, this is something that should be handled in Resteasy. If you agree, do you want to create a JIRA and I'll work on it?
