ValidationException must be thrown when validating a bean with an annotated 
method which isn't a valid getter
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: BVAL-45
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BVAL-45
             Project: BeanValidation
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: jsr303
    Affects Versions: 0.1-incubating
            Reporter: Carlos Vara


This one has its problems because it clashes directly with the MethodValidation 
implementation. I provide a candidate patch that follows the spec and doesn't 
break our extra functionality, please review it.

Supplied patch:
- Forces correct behavior of bean validation according to the spec: that is, a 
ValidationException is thrown. So, if you want to validate a bean which also 
has an annotated method, the implementation will follow the spec and throw an 
exception.
- Method validation works, but it is slower than before as constraint 
descriptions are no longer cached. This can be fixed, I just left this for 
later as I prefer to concentrate in TCK tests and I also would like to gather 
opinions as if this is the correct route or you have a better idea for this.
- 1 more TCK test passes.

So, to sum it up, if this patch is merged, don't mix annotated fields/getters 
with annotated methods in the same class. On the bright side, constructor 
annotations can be mixed.
