      • failFast

        public HibernateValidatorContext failFast​(boolean failFast)
        Description copied from interface: HibernateValidatorContext
        En- or disables the fail fast mode. When fail fast is enabled the validation will stop on the first constraint violation detected.
        Specified by:
        failFast in interface HibernateValidatorContext
        Parameters:
        failFast - true to enable fail fast, false otherwise.
        Returns:
        this following the chaining method pattern

      • allowOverridingMethodAlterParameterConstraint

        public HibernateValidatorContext allowOverridingMethodAlterParameterConstraint​(boolean allow)
        Description copied from interface: HibernateValidatorContext
        Define whether overriding methods that override constraints should throw a ConstraintDefinitionException. The default value is false, i.e. do not allow.

        See Section 4.5.5 of the JSR 380 specification, specifically 

         "In sub types (be it sub classes/interfaces or interface implementations), no parameter constraints may
 be declared on overridden or implemented methods, nor may parameters be marked for cascaded validation.
 This would pose a strengthening of preconditions to be fulfilled by the caller."
        Specified by:
        allowOverridingMethodAlterParameterConstraint in interface HibernateValidatorContext
        Parameters:
        allow - flag determining whether validation will allow overriding to alter parameter constraints.
        Returns:
        this following the chaining method pattern

      • allowMultipleCascadedValidationOnReturnValues

        public HibernateValidatorContext allowMultipleCascadedValidationOnReturnValues​(boolean allow)
        Description copied from interface: HibernateValidatorContext
        Define whether more than one constraint on a return value may be marked for cascading validation are allowed. The default value is false, i.e. do not allow.

        See Section 4.5.5 of the JSR 380 specification, specifically 

         "One must not mark a method return value for cascaded validation more than once in a line of a class hierarchy.
 In other words, overriding methods on sub types (be it sub classes/interfaces or interface implementations)
 cannot mark the return value for cascaded validation if the return value has already been marked on the
 overridden method of the super type or interface."
        Specified by:
        allowMultipleCascadedValidationOnReturnValues in interface HibernateValidatorContext
        Parameters:
        allow - flag determining whether validation will allow multiple cascaded validation on return values.
        Returns:
        this following the chaining method pattern

      • allowParallelMethodsDefineParameterConstraints

        public HibernateValidatorContext allowParallelMethodsDefineParameterConstraints​(boolean allow)
        Description copied from interface: HibernateValidatorContext
        Define whether parallel methods that define constraints should throw a ConstraintDefinitionException. The default value is false, i.e. do not allow.

        See Section 4.5.5 of the JSR 380 specification, specifically 

         "If a sub type overrides/implements a method originally defined in several parallel types of the hierarchy
 (e.g. two interfaces not extending each other, or a class and an interface not implemented by said class),
 no parameter constraints may be declared for that method at all nor parameters be marked for cascaded validation.
 This again is to avoid an unexpected strengthening of preconditions to be fulfilled by the caller."
        Specified by:
        allowParallelMethodsDefineParameterConstraints in interface HibernateValidatorContext
        Parameters:
        allow - flag determining whether validation will allow parameter constraints in parallel hierarchies
        Returns:
        this following the chaining method pattern

      • enableTraversableResolverResultCache

        public HibernateValidatorContext enableTraversableResolverResultCache​(boolean enabled)
        Description copied from interface: HibernateValidatorContext
        Define whether the per validation call caching of TraversableResolver results is enabled. The default value is true, i.e. the caching is enabled.

        This behavior was initially introduced to cache the JPATraversableResolver results but the map lookups it introduces can be counterproductive when the TraversableResolver calls are very fast.

        Specified by:
        enableTraversableResolverResultCache in interface HibernateValidatorContext
        Parameters:
        enabled - flag determining whether per validation call caching is enabled for TraversableResolver results.
        Returns:
        this following the chaining method pattern

      • getValidator

        public Validator getValidator()
        Description copied from interface: ValidatorContext
        Returns an initialized Validator instance respecting the defined state. Validator instances can be pooled and shared by the implementation.
        Specified by:
        getValidator in interface ValidatorContext
        Returns:
        contextualized Validator
