Implements org.hibernate.validator.internal.metadata.aggregated.ConstraintMetaData.asDescriptor.

Doc from org.hibernate.validator.internal.metadata.aggregated.ConstraintMetaData.asDescriptor.

Returns this meta data object's corresponding representation in the descriptor model.

Parameters

defaultGroupSequenceRedefined:boolean

Whether the bean hosting the represented element has a redefined default group sequence or not.

defaultGroupSequence:List<Class<?>>

The default group sequence of the bean hosting the represented element.

Returns:PropertyDescriptorImpl

This meta data object's corresponding descriptor model representation. Implementations should return a specific sub type of ElementDescriptor.

@Override

Overrides org.hibernate.validator.internal.metadata.aggregated.AbstractConstraintMetaData.equals.

Doc from java.lang.Object.equals.

Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.

The equals method implements an equivalence relation on non-null object references:

• It is reflexive: for any non-null reference value x, x.equals(x) should return true.
• It is symmetric: for any non-null reference values x and y, x.equals(y) should return true if and only if y.equals(x) returns true.
• It is transitive: for any non-null reference values x, y, and z, if x.equals(y) returns true and y.equals(z) returns true, then x.equals(z) should return true.
• It is consistent: for any non-null reference values x and y, multiple invocations of x.equals(y) consistently return true or consistently return false, provided no information used in equals comparisons on the objects is modified.
• For any non-null reference value x, x.equals(null) should return false.

An equivalence relation partitions the elements it operates on into equivalence classes; all the members of an equivalence class are equal to each other. Members of an equivalence class are substitutable for each other, at least for some purposes.

Parameters

obj:Object

the reference object with which to compare.

Returns:boolean

true if this object is the same as the obj argument; false otherwise.

Annotations

@Override

Returns the cascadables of this property, if any. Often, there will be just a single element returned. Several elements may be returned in the following cases:

• a property's field has been marked with @Valid but type-level constraints have been given on the getter
• one type parameter of a property has been marked with @Valid on the field (e.g. a map's key) but another type parameter has been marked with @Valid on the property (e.g. the map's value)
• a (shaded) private field in a super-type and another field of the same name in a sub-type are both marked with @Valid

Implements org.hibernate.validator.internal.metadata.aggregated.ConstraintMetaData.getKind.

Doc from org.hibernate.validator.internal.metadata.aggregated.ConstraintMetaData.getKind.

Returns the kind of this meta data object.

Returns:ElementKind

The kind of this meta data object.

@Override

Overrides org.hibernate.validator.internal.metadata.aggregated.AbstractConstraintMetaData.hashCode.

Doc from java.lang.Object.hashCode.

Returns a hash code value for the object. This method is supported for the benefit of hash tables such as those provided by java.util.HashMap.

The general contract of hashCode is:

• Whenever it is invoked on the same object more than once during an execution of a Java application, the hashCode method must consistently return the same integer, provided no information used in equals comparisons on the object is modified. This integer need not remain consistent from one execution of an application to another execution of the same application.
• If two objects are equal according to the equals method, then calling the hashCode method on each of the two objects must produce the same integer result.
• It is not required that if two objects are unequal according to the equals method, then calling the hashCode method on each of the two objects must produce distinct integer results. However, the programmer should be aware that producing distinct integer results for unequal objects may improve the performance of hash tables.

Returns:int

a hash code value for this object.

Annotations

@Override

Overrides org.hibernate.validator.internal.metadata.aggregated.AbstractConstraintMetaData.toString.

Doc from java.lang.Object.toString.

Returns a string representation of the object.

Returns:String

a string representation of the object.
