[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Commented: (BVAL-221) The constraint violation builder cannot put constraint on a top level map key

[Matt Benson (JIRA)]

    [ http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/BVAL-221?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=42000#action_42000 ] 

Matt Benson commented on BVAL-221:
----------------------------------

Isn't this spiritually related to BVTCK-12?  i.e. a/the problem is the conceptualization of a node as "property first"?

> This is a minor thing and maybe tunnel-visioned (I don't know much about the other beans-related specs), but if I do something like this in a ConstraintValidator:
> {code}
>   public boolean isValid(Map<String, String> target, ConstraintValidatorContext context) {
>     context.buildConstraintViolationWithTemplate("oh noes")
>                         .addNode(somekey)
>                         .addConstraintViolation();
>     return false;
>   }
> {code}
> It would be nice if that resulted in a violation at path someobject.mapproperty[somekey] rather than someobject.mapproperty.somekey.
