Method Detail

setApplicationContext

public void setApplicationContext(ApplicationContext applicationContext)
                           throws BeansException

Specified by:

setApplicationContext in interface ApplicationContextAware

Throws:

BeansException

getHibernateTemplate

public HibernateTemplate getHibernateTemplate()

Description copied from interface: PersistentConstraint

Obtains the HibernateTemplate

Specified by:

getHibernateTemplate in interface PersistentConstraint

Returns:

The HibernateTemplate instance

validate

public void validate(Object target,
                     Object propertyValue,
                     Errors errors)

Description copied from interface: Constraint

Validate this constraint against a property value. If implementation is vetoing (isVetoing() method returns true), then it could return 'true' to stop further validation.

Specified by:

validate in interface Constraint

Overrides:

validate in class AbstractConstraint

propertyValue - The property value to validate

errors - The errors instance to record errors against
