Package jakarta.validation.constraints


package jakarta.validation.constraints
Contains all the Jakarta Bean Validation provided constraints also called built-in constraints.

These constraints do not cover all functional use cases but do represent all the fundamental blocks to express low level constraints on basic JDK types.
