Hardy Ferentschik commented on HV-98:
-------------------------------------

Right, configuration settings including the mapping streams are provided by the {{ConfigurationState}} instance. Also the streams will be closed after the factory will be created. 

One way to reload the configuration of the {{ValidatorFactory}} would be to clear the caches and provide a new {{ConfigurationState}}. But what happens if the {{ValidationProvider}} in {{validation.xml}} has changed? Is it not better to just create a new ValidatorFactory? Do we have a concrete usecase?

> - Test how a dynamic reloading mode would work.
> - Instead of caching metadata by ValidationFactory, reload as the data might have changed (annotations or XML)
> - This can be a configuration setting.
