custom MessageInterpolation and CDI

Hi,

I am working in a Java EE (JBoss AS 7) environment and I need to inject some objects into a custom MessageInterpolator. Is this possible with Hibernate Validator (I am using HV 4.2.0) ?

Hi,

This will be possible out of the box with Bean Validation 1.1 and Hibernate Validator 5 (to be released soon).

For now you could configure your custom interpolator using CDI (e.g. by having it injected into a CDI bean) and pass it when bootstrapping a validator:

Code:

@ApplicationScoped
public class ValidatorProducer {

    @Inject
    private MessageInterpolator interpolator;

    @Produces
    public Validator createValidator() {
        Configuration<?> configuration = Validation.byDefaultProvider().configure();
        ValidatorFactory factory = configuration
            .messageInterpolator( interpolator )
            .buildValidatorFactory();

        return factory.getValidator();
    }
}
