HashMap上的Jax-rs / Jersey Bean验证

Question

I have a class that is already annotated with various constraints:

public class SomeBean
{
   @NotNull
   public String name;

   public String description;
}

I have a resource that accepts a HashMap of SomeBean :

public class SomeBeans extends LinkedHashMap<String, SomeBean>
{
}

When I try to pass in @Valid final SomeBeans , it does not validate each individual SomeBean . For example, they can send in a SomeBean with a null name:

@POST
@Consumes( MeadiaType.APPLICATION_JSON )
public SomeBeans makeSomeBeans( @Valid final SomeBeans beans )
{
  // beans is not validated!
}

Do I need to write a custom validator for SomeBeans or is this supported already?

Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

Unfortunately, there is no collection(or map in this case) validation support like that. Either you need to write custom validators or use this . Not sure if it supports maps yet though.
