Package javax.validation.spi

Interface ConfigurationState


  • public interface ConfigurationState
    Contract between a Configuration and a ValidationProvider to create a ValidatorFactory.

    The configuration artifacts defined in the XML configuration and provided to the Configuration are merged and passed along via ConfigurationState.

    • Method Detail

      • getMessageInterpolator

        MessageInterpolator getMessageInterpolator​()
        Returns the message interpolator of this configuration.

        Message interpolator is defined in the following decreasing priority:

        • set via the Configuration programmatic API
        • defined in META-INF/validation.xml provided that ignoreXmlConfiguration is false. In this case the instance is created via its no-arg constructor.
        • null if undefined.
        Returns:
        message interpolator instance or null if not defined

      • getMappingStreams

        java.util.Set<java.io.InputStream> getMappingStreams​()
        Returns a set of configuration streams.

        The streams are defined by:

        • mapping XML streams passed programmatically in Configuration
        • mapping XML streams located in the resources defined in META-INF/validation.xml (constraint-mapping element)

        Streams represented in the XML configuration and opened by the Configuration implementation must be closed by the Configuration implementation after the ValidatorFactory creation (or if an exception occurs). All streams are guaranteed to adhere to the mark/reset contract (see InputStream.markSupported() by the Bean Validation provider.

        Returns:
        set of input stream

      • getConstraintValidatorFactory

        ConstraintValidatorFactory getConstraintValidatorFactory​()
        Returns the constraint validator factory of this configuration.

        The ConstraintValidatorFactory implementation is defined in the following decreasing priority:

        • set via the Configuration programmatic API
        • defined in META-INF/validation.xml provided that ignoredXmlConfiguration is false. In this case the instance is created via its no-arg constructor.
        • null if undefined.
        Returns:
        factory instance or null if not defined

      • getTraversableResolver

        TraversableResolver getTraversableResolver​()
        Returns the traversable resolver for this configuration.

        TraversableResolver is defined in the following decreasing priority:

        • set via the Configuration programmatic API
        • defined in META-INF/validation.xml provided that ignoredXmlConfiguration is false. In this case the instance is created via its no-arg constructor.
        • null if undefined.
        Returns:
        traversable resolver instance or null if not defined

      • getParameterNameProvider

        ParameterNameProvider getParameterNameProvider​()
        Returns the parameter name provider for this configuration.

        ParameterNameProvider is defined in the following decreasing priority:

        • set via the Configuration programmatic API
        • defined in META-INF/validation.xml provided that ignoreXmlConfiguration is false. In this case the instance is created via its no-arg constructor.
        • null if undefined.
        Returns:
        parameter name provider instance or null if not defined

        1.1

      • getProperties

        java.util.Map<java.lang.String,java.lang.String> getProperties​()
        Returns a map of non type-safe custom properties.

        Properties defined via:

        If a property is defined both programmatically and in XML, the value defined programmatically has priority.

        Returns:
        Map whose key is the property key and the value the property value
