JSR 303 - Name of the annotated field in the custom validator

Question

I have a question about custom annotations. More precisely, do I have access to the name of the annotated field inside the custom validator ? If yes, how do I access this?

Thanks

You can access path via following exp

((ConstraintValidatorContextImpl) context).getConstraintViolationCreationContexts().get(0).getPath()

This solution doesn't appear to work anymore with hibernate.validator 7.0.1.Final. Can't figure out how to fix it – Peter Kronenberg May 10 '21 at 14:49

No, you can't access the name of the validated element from within a constraint validator. It is exposed by the resulting constraint violation, though (via getPropertyPath()).
