jakarta.validation.ConstraintValidatorFactory
Imports
jakarta.validation.ConstraintValidator, .ConstraintValidatorFactory, org.springframework.beans.factory.config.AutowireCapableBeanFactory, org.springframework.util.Assert
JSR-303 ConstraintValidatorFactory implementation that delegates to a Spring BeanFactory for creating autowired ConstraintValidator instances.

Note that this class is meant for programmatic use, not for declarative use in a standard validation.xml file. Consider org.springframework.web.bind.support.SpringWebConstraintValidatorFactory for declarative use in a web application, e.g. with JAX-RS or JAX-WS.
