Hi all,

I'm busy working with Hibernate Validation (4.0.2.GA), and I have a small question about the error messages. Currently, I have a class like this:

Code:

class Company {
   @NotEmpty
   private String firstName;

   // .. the rest here

I validate this using the following code:

Code:

ValidatorFactory factory = Validation.buildDefaultValidatorFactory();
Validator validator = factory.getValidator();
return validator.validate(bean);

And I use this in my Wicket code to get the error message:

Code:

Set<ConstraintViolation<Company>> constraintViolations = WicketApplication.validate(company);
for (ConstraintViolation constraintViolation : constraintViolations) {
    error(constraintViolation.getMessage());
}

However, the output in my UI is something like this:
may not be empty

My question is therefor: how do I figure out what is empty? I'd rather not use the message property on the annotation, since I have to annotate around a 100 properties, and I wouldn't like to specify a 100 messages. I also cannot imagine this would be the way to go, but I haven't found the correct way yet, so if someone could help me out on this, that would be most appreciated!

Thanks,

Erik

Hi Erik,

I used this, this will display className.propertyName. You can also play with the propertyPath and display whatever you want.

constraintViolation.getRootBeanClass().getSimpleName() + "." + constraintViolation.getPropertyPath() + ": " + constraintViolation.getMessage()

Hope it helps,
Anton
