Emmanuel Bernard commented on HV-522:
-------------------------------------

Hi Brian, I have a couple of questions:
- is that a problem in practice?
- which spec are you referring to, Bean Validation or the JavaBeans spec wrt native boolean types vs Boolean type. It seems more like a mistake than an intentional restriction,

> Right now, hibernate determines a matching getter and setters by matching methods that start with "get" and "set" or "is" and "set".  But the spec says that "is" should only be considered when the type is little boolean.  
> Hibernate should fail validation in this case because it doesn't match the spec:
> public Boolean isVariable()
> public Boolean setVariable()
> because in this case "is" should be "get" since it is not a little boolean.
