Hardy Ferentschik commented on HV-523:
--------------------------------------

What is the point of _orthank-sample.zip_? Does it contain a test case or some patches? I tried to a simple _mvn clean test_, but it does work, because some dependencies cannot be resolved.

I am also not sure what exactly you are asking for. The latest HV version defines the OSGi metadata. Regarding boostrapping, you are right that you need a custom OSGi aware _ValidationProviderResolver_. This, however, is a problem is the Bean Validation specification which ships with a simple default resolver. For custom environment you need to write your own resolver. This is intended.

> It's for now about impossible to plug hibernate validators in an osgi environment with extenders like spring-dm.
> I've found multiple blog entries explaining the bootstrapping issue of validation api.

> I'm not an OSGI expert, so I think you'll better understand the problem than me.
> The problem remains that validation api is not usable in a valuable osgi environment for now (spring-dm, blueprint...).

> Thank you to investigate on this problem, I give you a sample project in order to test it ('mvn pax:provision -Dframework=equinox' in order to run the server).
