What is required to get this annotation working on ee5.
Have included main hibernate jars and required dependants.
However valuation does not get called.
Have put annotation on interface and implementation both cases don't work.
In DTO parameter in ejb method annotated with Valid.
DTO getter method annotated with NotEmpty.
Container being used is WebLogic 10.3.6.

DTO

Code:

@NotEmpty
public String getMsisdn() {
   return mMsisdn;
}

EJB

Code:

@Stateless(name = "ValidationTest")
@ValidateOnExecution(type = ExecutableType.IMPLICIT)
public class ValidationTestBean implements ValidationTestLocal {

    public BooleanOutDTO isSubscriberActive(@Valid IsSubscriberActiveInDTO pInDTO) {
       return new BooleanOutDTO(true);
    }

}

@ValidateOnExecution is used for triggering validation via a CDI method interceptor in EE 7. Since CDI doesn't exist as of EE 5 just specifying the annotations won't have any effect. You could implement your own EJB method interceptor and register this four your beans you want to validate.
