> The HV reference guide says 
> {quote}
> [The programmatic] API can be used exclusively or in combination with annotations and xml. If used in combination programmatic constraints are additive to otherwise configured constraints.
> {quote}
> While that is right for constraints configured via annotations and programmatic API this does currently not work for constraints configured via XML and programmatic API. Currently a type's XML configuration has precedence over its programmatic configuration. The cause is that once the meta data for a type is added to the bean meta data cache in {{ValidatorFactoryImpl#initXmlConfiguration()}} programmatic meta data won't be added or merged in {{initProgrammaticConfiguration()}}.
