Hi All, Thanks for the quick replies, and apologies for not being more specific - I was quoting the EE 7 Platform spec as I am particularly interested in using the bval 1.1 implementation that hasn't been officially released yet.
But from what I am hearing, it is the responsibility of an EE server to handle the WEB-INF case. I can see how this is possible for the 1.0 implementation, as the server can parse the validation.xml itself and bootstrap the configuration through the validation spec API's. How would this be done for the current 1.1 implementation in the bval-1.1 branch in the repository? I don't see how the values for the "executable-validation" element could be provided to the impl through the validation spec API's.
