The AnnotationActionValidatorManager does not adhere to the
ActionValidatorManager interface's contract
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: WW-3753
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WW-3753
Project: Struts 2
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Rees Byars
Priority: Minor
An ActionValidatorManager accepts a java.util.String "context" parameter for
identifying the appropriate configurations. In the
AnnotationActionValidatorManager's buildValidatorKey() method, however,
"proxy.getMethod()" is used instead of the passed-in context. This violates
the contract of the interface and tightly couples the
AnnotationActionValidatorManager to the AnnotationValidationInterceptor.
I have a situation whereby I have created my own validation interceptor for a
special case that passes in a context not derived from proxy.getMethod(), only
to find that this context isn't used properly by the manager. I then created
my own manager, changing only the buildValidatorKey() to use the given context,
and it works well.
Either the ActionValidatorManager should be changed to no longer accept a
context parameter and handle the context itself in every case (which seems to
not be the best solution), or the AnnotationActionValidatorManager should be
changed to use the given context in every case.
