Top level package of the Bean Validation API.
The main runtime artifacts are:
Validation
: the entry point to bootstrap Bean Validation
ValidatorFactory
: the bootstrapped Bean Validation engine
Validator
: contract to validate beans and access the metadata
ConstraintViolation
: constraint violation report
The main constraint definition artifacts are:
Constraint
: annotation marking an annotation as being a constraint
ConstraintValidator
: interface implemented by the piece of code validating a given constraint
ReportAsSingleViolation
: marks a composed constraint as returning a single constraint violation report
The main constraint declaration artifacts are:
Valid
: annotation marking an association as cascaded during validation
GroupSequence
: defines a sequence of groups that should be validated sequentially
