Returns:

true if the Bean Validation provider is allowed to cascade validation, false otherwise
isCascadable(Object
object hosting traversableProperty or null if validateValue is called
traversableObject, Path.Node
the traversable property
traversableProperty, Class<?>

rootBeanType, Path
path from the root object to traversableObject (using the path specification defined by Bean Validator)
pathToTraversableObject, ElementType
either FIELD or METHOD
elementType)

Determines if the Bean Validation provider is allowed to cascade validation on the bean instance returned by the property value marked as @Valid.

public boolean

Returns:

true if the Bean Validation provider is allowed to reach the property state, false otherwise

Method Detail

isCascadableback to summary
public boolean isCascadable(Object traversableObject, Path.Node traversableProperty, Class<?> rootBeanType, Path pathToTraversableObject, ElementType elementType)

Determines if the Bean Validation provider is allowed to cascade validation on the bean instance returned by the property value marked as @Valid.

Note that this method is called only if isReachable(Object, javax.validation.Path.Node, Class, Path, java.lang.annotation.ElementType) returns true for the same set of arguments and if the property is marked as Valid.

Parameters
traversableObject:Object

object hosting traversableProperty or null if validateValue is called

traversableProperty:Path.Node

the traversable property

rootBeanType:Class<?>

type of the root object passed to the Validator or hosting the method or constructor validated

pathToTraversableObject:Path

path from the root object to traversableObject (using the path specification defined by Bean Validator)

elementType:ElementType

either FIELD or METHOD

Returns:boolean

true if the Bean Validation provider is allowed to cascade validation, false otherwise

isReachableback to summary
public boolean isReachable(Object traversableObject, Path.Node traversableProperty, Class<?> rootBeanType, Path pathToTraversableObject, ElementType elementType)

Determines if the Bean Validation provider is allowed to reach the property state.

Parameters
traversableObject:Object

object hosting traversableProperty or null if validateValue is called

traversableProperty:Path.Node

the traversable property

rootBeanType:Class<?>

type of the root object passed to the Validator or hosting the method or constructor validated

pathToTraversableObject:Path

path from the root object to traversableObject (using the path specification defined by Bean Validator)

elementType:ElementType

either FIELD or METHOD

Returns:boolean

true if the Bean Validation provider is allowed to reach the property state, false otherwise
