For example, if I try to commit an object with a missing "mandatory

like to
change the generic error messages (ex: field cannot be empty, field
exceeds
maximum allowed length) thrown by cayenne and these messages seem
to be hard
coded in the sources.
Is there a "clean way" to customize those messages?
Write your own validateForSave functions within the object entity
subclass which return any validation message you want.
if (getLastName() == null || getLastName().trim().length() == 0) {
result.addFailure(ValidationFailure.validationFailure(this,
Student.LAST_NAME_PROPERTY,
"You must enter a student last name."));
}
