-------------------------------------
Hi, a Hibernate Validator developer here :-)
Sorry to hear you run into issues with using HV in OSGi. We've put a bit of an
effort into making it work, which it actually does in general by now. But I am
happy to help ironing out any remaining glitches.
Some remarks:
*Bootstrap*
Atm. a custom validation provider resolver is needed with OSGi, also if the
{{HibernateValidator}} provider is explicitly used. This is due to a glitch in
the BV API JAR, which we've planned to fix in the next version (see
[BVAL-486|https://hibernate.atlassian.net/browse/BVAL-486]). Note that the
official spec JAR already contains the required manifest entries. So for now
it'd have to be the following:
{code}
public static class MyValidationProviderResolver implements
ValidationProviderResolver {
@Override
public List<ValidationProvider<?>> getValidationProviders() {
return Collections.<ValidationProvider<?>>singletonList( new
HibernateValidator() );
}
}
// And using the resolver:
ValidatorFacotry vf = Validation.byProvider( HibernateValidator.class )
.providerResolver( new MyValidationProviderResolver() )
.configure()
.buildValidatorFactory();
{code}
*User-provided resources*
Whenever we need to load stuff by name or provided by the user in general
(classes given in XML config, message bundles etc.) we do so using a
classloader that may explicitly be set during bootstrap. See
{{HibernateValidatorConfiguration#externalClassLoader()}} for the details.
*Karaf Features file*
We provide one already (see
[here|https://github.com/hibernate/hibernate-validator/blob/master/osgi/karaf-features/src/main/features/features.xml])
and I'd love it that'd be "the one". We can fix the issues due to the wrap
stuff, [~bmargulies] offered his help already. Thanks!
*Class-loading issues around EL*
This one is puzzling me, it should suffice if the HV bundle can see EL packages
(in the right version) exported by another bundle. As discussed in
[HV-1039|https://hibernate.atlassian.net/browse/HV-1039] we'd need to have some
more details on this one (full log/stacktrace).
Please let me know if there is anything else I/we can do to make that
integration work smoothly.

> Using Karaf 4.0.2,

> and checkout the use-cxf-support branch, it will build you a Karaf assembly
> that, when you poke the service (http://localhost:8181/cxf/validate)
> will yield the following backtrace. This assumes that you are up to date with
> my fix to cxf-6705 which is on master and the 3.1.x branch.
