Is it possible to determine which validation group(s) the validator was called with from within my constraint validator class?

For instance, if I have:

Code:

@ValidFoo
public class Foo
{
}

and I call:

Code:

validator.validate (myFoo, MyGroup.class);

can I determine in my ValidFooValidator that the validator was called with the MyGroup.class validation group? I'm not seeing a way of getting this information from the ConstraintValidatorContext.

Hi,

you are right, there is no way to determine in a ConstraintValidator which group gets evaluated at the moment. I don't think that it would be a good idea either. Groups and constraint validators should not know of each other. These concepts are orthogonal.
