Thanks for your answer!
Well...propably I'm abusing bean validation (?), but in my case that
doesn't help (actually I'm already doing it like this with different
groups).
I'll try to explain my problem:
Basically I've got two validation groups which both should be run on the
server-side: Client and Server
Client: These validators should be run when an object enters the server
from the client (in the ServiceLayerDecorator)
Server: These validators should be run before persist / update etc happens
(in my DAOs)
The reason why I separated it like this is that there are some class level
constraints which may be violated when an object enters the server that
should get corrected in the service method afterwards, but for safety be
checked again before updating the database.
So far that works good and was pretty easy to implement:
ServiceLayerDecorator:
@Override
public <T> Set<ConstraintViolation<T>> validate(T domainObject) {
return validator.validate(domainObject, Client.class);
}
But ViolationExceptions occuring later are, as Michael already explained
pretty well, reported as ServerFailures, not as ConstraintViolations ->
non-resusable RequestContext, no error messages shown etc :-/
I already tried to copy/paste SimpleRequestProcessor &
RequestFactoryServlet (into com.google... package structure) to change it
to my needs. I have to admit though that I couldn't figure out how to catch
all exceptions and not handle ConstraintViolationExceptions as server
failures. I would already be happy with that although it feels a bit hacky
:)!
