[bv-dev] BV 2.0 - Add constraints?

[Marco Molteni]

Hi Gunnar,

Here the procedure to find the result:

1. Quick and dirty

copy this url and rellace the class name in the result page

https://github.com/search?l=&q=javax.validation.constraints.NotNull+language%3AJava&ref=advsearch&type=Code&utf8=%E2%9C%93


2. Step by step

You can go here:

https://github.com/search/advanced

You should search the full class name of the annotation, ex. :
javax.validation.constraints.NotNull

You can set the language to Java. After you execute the query you can
filter only the results in 'Code'.

Like this you can find where an annotation class is imported.


Remarks:

At every execution the result change 5-10%, it's absolutely not scientific
(I don't know how it works their index and search) but you can get an idea
of the usage of some classes.


Cheers,

Marco
