[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Commented: (BVAL-208) @Valid should support groups attribute

[Arthur Ronald F D Garcia (JIRA)]

    [ http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/BVAL-208?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=38856#action_38856 ] 

Arthur Ronald F D Garcia commented on BVAL-208:
-----------------------------------------------

The JSR-303 javax.validation.Valid API is clear

Mark an association as cascaded. The associated object will be validated by cascade.

When Spring uses @Valid AS A MARKER to validate its command objects, it corrupts its purpose. Spring should instead create an specific annotation in which you can supply the target group (s). My vote has been removed.

> The @Valid annotation should implement the group attribute in order to make validation completely annotation driven. Currently, we need to manually call the validate method on the validator if we want to validate based on groups.
