JSF Validator cannot be cast to javax.faces.validator.Validator 
----------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JBPORTAL-1939
                 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBPORTAL-1939
             Project: JBoss Portal
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
    Affects Versions: Identity-1.0
         Environment: JBoss Portal - Identity portlet 
            Reporter: Alex Kachanov


JBoss portal is using idenityt portlet to regster new users and edit profiles for existing users 
I added new my own JSF validator to the identty portlet which when opened throws the following exception: 

java.lang.ClassCastException: com.kachanov.test004.validators.MyValidator cannot be cast to javax.faces.validator.Validator 
at org.apache.myfaces.application.ApplicationImpl.createValidator(ApplicationImpl.java:613) 

The code of my validator is: 

========================================================== 
package com.kachanov.test004.validators; 

import javax.faces.application.FacesMessage; 
import javax.faces.component.UIComponent; 
import javax.faces.context.FacesContext; 
import javax.faces.validator.Validator; 
import javax.faces.validator.ValidatorException; 

public class MyValidator implements Validator { 

public void validate(FacesContext arg0, UIComponent arg1, Object arg2) throws ValidatorException { 

System.out.println("testing this validator"); 
} 
} 

========================================================== 

So please thell me how can it bee that a class that implements Validator cannot be cast to javax.faces.validator.Validator?????? 
Is in't it against basic design of Java languages?
