[Resteasy-users] @ValidateRequest @Valid Constraints for embedded classes not validated

[marceloverdijk <ma...@ov...>]

I'm using the simple Order and OrderLine classes as below, together with a
OrderResource. 
The Order and OrderLine contain Hibernate Validator constraints for
validation being performed automatically using the @ValidateRequest and
@Valid annotations. 


public class Order { 

        @Id 
        private Long id; 

        @NotNull 
        private Long customerId; 

        @NotNull 
        private Date orderDate; 

        @Embedded 
        List<OrderLine> lines = new ArrayList<OrderLine>(); 
} 

public class OrderLine { 

        @NotBlank 
        private String description; 

        @NotNull 
        private Double price; 
} 

@Path("/order") 
public class OrderResource { 

        @POST 
        @Consumes(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON) 
        @Produces(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON) 
        @ValidateRequest 
        public Order create(@Valid Order order) { 
                order.save(); 
                return order; 
        } 
} 


This works fine for validating the Order class but if the create resource
receives a JSON body including OrderLine lines these are not validated... 
However the lines are added to the order itself so that works. 

Is it possible to validate the Order lines automatically? 


Cheers, 
Marcel
