Alex Marshall commented on HV-19:
---------------------------------

I think we should probably be taking hints from the RFC for URIs on this one: http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2396.txt , specifically the ones relating to HTTP, S/FTP, and similar.  I think URIs such as mailto: may have to be excluded because their syntax differs too much from HTTP et al

> I was looking at the release notes for commons validator 1.2 http://wiki.apache.org/jakarta-commons/ValidatorVersion120  and wondered if the higher level constructs fit the design goals of hibernate validator.
> They have email, URL, Credit card and ISBN.  These could all be handled via @Pattern with regex matching a constant declared somewhere.
> Would it be desirable to have Hibernate supply the values for these constants? Such as:
> @Pattern(type="email") or @Pattern(regex=org.hibernate.validator.Pattern.EMAIL) or @Email
> Email and URL are global patterns.  This probably wouldn't work for something like phone number which is locale sensitive.
