Here is the example of the code that I use:
@Stateless
@Path("/rest")
public class MyResouce{
@POST
@Path("/test")
public Response test(@Valid Test t){
return Response.ok().build();
}
}
public class Test {
@Size(max = 3)
private String val;
public String getVal() {
return val;
}
public void setVal(String val) {
this.val = val;
}
}
I expect a ValidationException when I pass an invalid object (length of val more than 3) but the exception doesn't occur. When I inject the validator and to do validation programmatically:
@Path("/rest")
public class MyResouce{
@Resource
private Validator validator;
@POST
@Path("/test")
public Response test(@Valid Test t){
Set<ConstraintViolation<Test>> violations = validator.validate(t); // size = 1, means t object is invalid
return Response.ok().build();
}
}
the result of the validation has 1 ConstraintViolation item that means the object is invalid and it looks like the annotation @Valid is ignored. How to validate objects non programmatically? Here is my validation.xml descriptor:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<validation-config
