Patch to allow pluggable validation implementations --------------------------------------------------- Key: JBSEAM-135 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBSEAM-135 Project: JBoss Seam Issue Type: Patch Components: Core Affects Versions: 1.0 beta 2 Reporter: Marvin van Schalkwyk Attachments: pluggable-validator.patch, validation-(a)ifValid.patch I needed to replace the Hibernate Validator implementation with my own. I also needed to allow invalid values that were not associated with a particular property. Summary of changes: - New package, org.jboss.seam.validator, that defines interfaces for Component Validator Factories, Component Validators, and Invalid Values. Also in here are the default Hibernate Validator implementations of each. - New built-in component, org.jboss.seam.core.Validator, that provides the ComponentValidatorFactory instances. Exposes a factoryClass attribute for seam.properties to replace the default Hibernate Validator factory implementation. - Changes to Component for obvious reasons, and also to lazily initialize validators, since validation now depends on a component in application scope. - Changes to Initialization to init new Validator component. - Changes to the InterceptorTest to get it working with the changes.
