failFast

HibernateValidatorContext failFast(boolean failFast)

En- or disables the fail fast mode. When fail fast is enabled the validation will stop on the first constraint violation detected.

Parameters:

failFast - true to enable fail fast, false otherwise.

Returns:

this following the chaining method pattern

addValidationValueHandler

HibernateValidatorContext addValidationValueHandler(ValidatedValueUnwrapper<?> handler)

Registers the given validated value unwrapper with the bootstrapped validator. When validating an element which is of a type supported by the unwrapper and which is annotated with UnwrapValidatedValue, the unwrapper will be applied to retrieve the value to validate.

Parameters:

handler - the unwrapper to register

Returns:

this following the chaining method pattern

timeProvider

HibernateValidatorContext timeProvider(TimeProvider timeProvider)

Registers the given time provider with the bootstrapped validator. This provider will be used to obtain the current time when validating @Future and @Past constraints. If not set or if null is passed as a parameter, the time provider of the ValidatorFactory is used.

Parameters:

timeProvider - the time provider to register.

Returns:

this following the chaining method pattern
