Stop using a properties file for built-in constraints and move to a list in Java
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: BVAL-90
                 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/BVAL-90
             Project: Bean Validation
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: ri-general
            Reporter: Emmanuel Bernard


What's the benefit of having a properties file (BuiltinConstraintDesfinitions) as opposed to a <A extends Annotation> Map<A, ConstraintValidator<A, ?>> ?

I understand the need for flexibility but how is recompiling the class containing this Map harder than using a properties file?
