[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Commented: (HV-460) Create a SerializableValidatorFactory wrapper that has enough information to either access or create a matching implementation when deserializing

Scott Marlow commented on HV-460:
---------------------------------

Our current workaround is to share the same Validator Factory instance but a user just reported a problem with that (http://community.jboss.org/thread/174014).

I'm thinking that we should instead create a separate Validator Factory per EntityManagerFactory (so each application will have its own factory for each persistence unit).  This is easy for standalone applications.  For clustered applications, will be a bit harder (but doable).

Could you confirm that each application should have its own instance of a ValidatorFactory?

> It should be possible, but it involves the serialization of a fair amount of classes. It feels to risky to do this is part of the 4.2 release which is coming out shortly.
> Let's have a closer look at this for an early 4.3 version. There will be a lot of refactoring due to JBoss logging and package restructuring. Hopefully we can address this as part of these changes.
