[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Commented: (HV-381) Provide a fail fast switch to stop processing constraints on first failure

[Gunnar Morling (JIRA)]

    [ http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HV-381?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=39899#action_39899 ] 

Gunnar Morling commented on HV-381:
-----------------------------------

I'm not sure whether I like this as it leaves space for inconsistent invocations of the API such as

{code:java}
final Validator validator = factory.unwrap( HibernateValidatorFactory.class )
    .usingContext()
    .failFast( false )
    .maxFailures(5)
    .getValidator();
{code}

Plus, would it be sufficient to invoke maxFailures() or would it be required to invoke failFast() as well? If you don't feel like starting with the numeric parameter in the first place we should better leave it out at all.
