-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HV-345
                 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HV-345
             Project: Hibernate Validator
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: engine
    Affects Versions: 4.2.0
            Reporter: Roman Arkadijovych Muntyanu
            Assignee: Hardy Ferentschik


[This feature request has been added to this project due to relation to Java-level constraint validation. Please feel free moving it to appropriate project]

Since constraints validation is added at Java model level, it would be interesting to write a tool, that would do the following during application start-up:
  * poll the database for schema;
  * poll hibernate for XML/JPA Mappings;
  * compare two of the above to constraints defined through validation framework and generate warnings in the logs.

For the initial version this could be simple checks like size of field defined in DB and in the model, field mandatority etc.

This would help a lot in keeping consistency between database and business constraints model.
