Hi,

I think there is another error in the Validator javadoc. Probably a  
cut&paste error

	 * @throws IllegalArgumentException if object is null, if propertyName  
null, empty
	 *                                  or not a valid object property
	 *                                  or if null is passed to the varargs  
groups
	 * @throws ValidationException	  if a non recoverable error happens
	 *                                  during the validation process
	 */
	<T> Set<ConstraintViolation<T>> validateValue(Class<T> beanType, String  
propertyName, Object value, Class<?>... groups);

IllegalArgumentException if object is null seems to be wrong. Probably  
should be "if beanType is null". null as value seems to be a valid case.
