Hardy Ferentschik commented on HV-532:
--------------------------------------
Would a fix mean breaking the current API. If so, we should move it to HV 5.

> Issue Type: Task

> There is a cyclic dependency between the packages {{org.hibernate.validator.metadata.core}} and {{org.hibernate.validator.metadata.descriptor}} which should be removed.
> I think the general problem is that {{ConstraintDescriptorImpl}} (which is now part of the "descriptor" model) is used globally in HV. Probably there should be a corresponding node in the internal model (actually we already have this with {{MetaConstraint}}), of which {{ConstraintDescriptorImpl}} would only be a light-weight view for external meta-model users.
> In {{ConstraintDescriptorImpl}} there is also a lot of logic related to annotation retrieval, which we now might move into the provider hierarchy similar to {{BeanMetaDataImpl}}.
