requiresMessageFormat	back to summary
protected boolean requiresMessageFormat(ConstraintViolation<?> violation) Indicate whether this violation's interpolated message has remaining placeholders and therefore requires `java.text.MessageFormat` to be applied to it. Called for a Bean Validation defined message (coming out `ValidationMessages.properties`) when rendered as the default message in Spring's MessageSource. The default implementation considers a Spring-style "{0}" placeholder for the field name as an indication for `java.text.MessageFormat`. Any other placeholder or escape syntax occurrences are typically a mismatch, coming out of regex pattern values or the like. Note that standard Bean Validation does not support "{0}" style placeholders at all; this is a feature typically used in Spring MessageSource resource bundles. Parameters violation:ConstraintViolation<?> the Bean Validation constraint violation, including BV-defined interpolation of named attribute references in its message Returns:boolean `true` if `java.text.MessageFormat` is to be applied, or `false` if the violation's message should be used as-is Since 5.1.8 See Also `getArgumentsForConstraint`

protected boolean requiresMessageFormat(ConstraintViolation<?> violation)
