Constructor Detail

AbstractConstraintMetaData

public AbstractConstraintMetaData(String name,
                                  Type type,
                                  Set<MetaConstraint<?>> constraints,
                                  ElementKind constrainedMetaDataKind,
                                  boolean isCascading,
                                  boolean isConstrained)

Parameters:

name - the name of the constrained property, method or parameter

type - the type of the constrained element

constraints - the set of constraints

constrainedMetaDataKind - the type of constraint - property, method or parameter constraint

isCascading - should cascading constraints be evaluated. Returns true is the constrained element is marked for cascaded validation (@Valid), false otherwise.

isConstrained - returns true is there are direct constraints defined on this element or it is marked for cascaded validation, false otherwise.
