Define whether overriding methods that override constraints should throw a ConstraintDefinitionException
. The default value is false
, i.e. do not allow.
See Section 4.5.5 of the JSR 380 specification, specifically
"In sub types (be it sub classes/interfaces or interface implementations), no parameter constraints may
be declared on overridden or implemented methods, nor may parameters be marked for cascaded validation.
This would pose a strengthening of preconditions to be fulfilled by the caller."
Params: - allow – flag determining whether validation will allow overriding to alter parameter constraints.
Returns: this
following the chaining method patternSince: 5.3

Define whether more than one constraint on a return value may be marked for cascading validation are allowed. The default value is false
, i.e. do not allow.
See Section 4.5.5 of the JSR 380 specification, specifically
"One must not mark a method return value for cascaded validation more than once in a line of a class hierarchy.
In other words, overriding methods on sub types (be it sub classes/interfaces or interface implementations)
cannot mark the return value for cascaded validation if the return value has already been marked on the
overridden method of the super type or interface."
Params: - allow – flag determining whether validation will allow multiple cascaded validation on return values.

Define whether parallel methods that define constraints should throw a ConstraintDefinitionException
. The default value is false
, i.e. do not allow.
See Section 4.5.5 of the JSR 380 specification, specifically
"If a sub type overrides/implements a method originally defined in several parallel types of the hierarchy
(e.g. two interfaces not extending each other, or a class and an interface not implemented by said class),
no parameter constraints may be declared for that method at all nor parameters be marked for cascaded validation.
This again is to avoid an unexpected strengthening of preconditions to be fulfilled by the caller."

Define whether the per validation call caching of TraversableResolver
results is enabled. The default value is true
, i.e. the caching is enabled. This behavior was initially introduced to cache the JPATraversableResolver
results but the map lookups it introduces can be counterproductive when the TraversableResolver
calls are very fast.
Params: - enabled – flag determining whether per validation call caching is enabled for
TraversableResolver
results.
