Class BeanValidator

  • All Implemented Interfaces:

    Validator, Serializable

    public class BeanValidator
extends Object
implements Validator

    Vaadin Validator using the JSR-303 (javax.validation) annotation-based bean validation. The annotations of the fields of the beans are used to determine the validation to perform. Note that a JSR-303 implementation (e.g. Hibernate Validator or Apache Bean Validation - formerly agimatec validation) must be present on the project classpath when using bean validation.
