Changing Generic Type on @Size, @Pattern a.s.o. from String to CharacterSequence
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HV-502
                 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HV-502
             Project: Hibernate Validator
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: validators
    Affects Versions: 4.2.0.CR1
         Environment: Hibernate Validator 4.2
            Reporter: Andreas Grund
            Priority: Minor


Hi,

it would be nice, if the Generic Type of the Validators for the @Size or @Pattern Annotation (exactly for all String based Validators) could be changed from String to CharSequence. This allows the user to implement it own CharSequence Implementations (e.g. a String Delegation class) and to use the Bean validation with his own Implementation without the need of additional configuration.

Greetings,
Andreas
