org.hibernate.validator.cfg.context
Interface TypeConstraintMappingContext<C>

Type Parameters:

C - The type represented by this creational context.

All Superinterfaces:

AnnotationProcessingOptions<TypeConstraintMappingContext<C>>, Constrainable<TypeConstraintMappingContext<C>>, MethodTarget, PropertyTarget, TypeTarget

All Known Implementing Classes:

TypeConstraintMappingContextImpl

public interface TypeConstraintMappingContext<C>
extends Constrainable<TypeConstraintMappingContext<C>>, TypeTarget, PropertyTarget, MethodTarget, AnnotationProcessingOptions<TypeConstraintMappingContext<C>>

Constraint mapping creational context representing a type. Allows place class-level constraints on that type, define its default group sequence (and provider) and to navigate to other constraint targets.

Method Summary

TypeConstraintMappingContext<C>	defaultGroupSequence(Class<?>... defaultGroupSequence) Defines the default group sequence for current type.
<T extends DefaultGroupSequenceProvider<? super C>> TypeConstraintMappingContext<C>	defaultGroupSequenceProvider(Class<T> defaultGroupSequenceProviderClass) Deprecated. Will be removed in a future release. Use defaultGroupSequenceProviderClass(Class) instead.
TypeConstraintMappingContext<C>	defaultGroupSequenceProviderClass(Class<? extends DefaultGroupSequenceProvider<? super C>> defaultGroupSequenceProviderClass) Defines the default group sequence provider for the current type.
TypeConstraintMappingContext<C>	ignoreAllAnnotations() Defines that all annotations for this type should be ignored.

Method Detail

ignoreAllAnnotations

TypeConstraintMappingContext<C> ignoreAllAnnotations()

Defines that all annotations for this type should be ignored.

Returns:

The current creational context following the method chaining pattern.

defaultGroupSequence

TypeConstraintMappingContext<C> defaultGroupSequence(Class<?>... defaultGroupSequence)

Defines the default group sequence for current type.

Parameters:

defaultGroupSequence - the default group sequence.

Returns:

The current creational context following the method chaining pattern.

defaultGroupSequenceProvider

@Deprecated
<T extends DefaultGroupSequenceProvider<? super C>> TypeConstraintMappingContext<C> defaultGroupSequenceProvider(Class<T> defaultGroupSequenceProviderClass)

Deprecated. Will be removed in a future release. Use defaultGroupSequenceProviderClass(Class) instead.

Defines the default group sequence provider for the current type.

Parameters:

defaultGroupSequenceProviderClass - The default group sequence provider class.

Returns:

The current creational context following the method chaining pattern.

defaultGroupSequenceProviderClass

TypeConstraintMappingContext<C> defaultGroupSequenceProviderClass(Class<? extends DefaultGroupSequenceProvider<? super C>> defaultGroupSequenceProviderClass)

Defines the default group sequence provider for the current type.

Parameters:

defaultGroupSequenceProviderClass - The default group sequence provider class.

Returns:

The current creational context following the method chaining pattern.
