Hi,

While using HibernateValidator (4.0.0.GA) and statically initializing ValidatorFactory, i get following error at deployment time in Weblogic11g:
java.lang.ClassCastException: org.hibernate.validator.HibernateValidator cannot be cast to javax.validation.spi.ValidationProvider

Code excerpt:

public class BaseBusinessObject implements BusinessObject {
protected static ValidatorFactory factory = Validation.byDefaultProvider().configure().buildValidatorFactory();
protected Validator validator = null;

....
}

This BaseBusinessObject is being used in a stateless EJB 3.0 which is in turn used by Struts2 actions.

When i move factory initialization to an instance method everything goes fine and works as desired. Any clues why its happening?

Full Stacktrace:

I was using weblogic 10.3.0 i did following change in weblogic-application.xml in application ear

<prefer-application-packages>
<package-name>javax.validation.*</package-name>
<package-name>org.hibernate.validator.*</package-name>
</prefer-application-packages>

And now i can instantiate validator factory in static class. It was a class loading issue. And above lines enable weblogic filter class loader.
Do not forget to add validation.jar and hibernate-validator.jar in manifest of ejb.jar.
