Package org.hibernate.validator.internal.metadata.aggregated

The classes in this package contain the aggregated meta data needed for an actual validation. The aggregated meta data view takes into account type inheritance, configuration source, etc and aggregates for a given type.

Interface Summary

Interface	Description
BeanMetaData<T>	Interface defining the meta data about the constraints defined in a given bean.
CascadingMetaData	An aggregated view of the cascading validation metadata.
ConstraintMetaData	An aggregated view of the constraint related meta data for a given bean/type element and all the elements in the inheritance hierarchy which it overrides or implements.

Class Summary

Class	Description
AbstractConstraintMetaData	Base implementation for ConstraintMetaData with attributes common to all type of meta data.
AbstractPropertyCascadable<T extends Property>	A Cascadable backed by a property of a Java bean.
AbstractPropertyCascadable.AbstractBuilder<T extends Property>
BeanMetaDataBuilder<T>
BeanMetaDataImpl<T>	This class encapsulates all meta data needed for validation.
CascadingMetaDataBuilder	A temporary data structure used to build CascadingMetaData.
ClassMetaData	Represents the constraint related meta data for a type i.e.
ClassMetaData.Builder
ContainerCascadingMetaData	An aggregated view of the cascading validation metadata for containers.
ExecutableMetaData	An aggregated view of the constraint related meta data for a given method or constructors and in (case of methods) all the methods in the inheritance hierarchy which it overrides or implements.

MetaDataBuilder	Builds ConstraintMetaData instances for the ConstrainedElement objects representing one method or property in a type's inheritance hierarchy.
NonContainerCascadingMetaData	A simplified view of the cascading validation metadata for an element that does not contain any container element cascading.
ParameterMetaData	An aggregated view of the constraint related meta data for a single method parameter.
ParameterMetaData.Builder
PotentiallyContainerCascadingMetaData	A simplified view of the cascading validation metadata for a potentially container element at runtime.
