Specified by:

isReportAsSingleViolation in interface ConstraintDescriptor<T extends Annotation>

addComposed

public void addComposed(ConstraintValidation<?> aConstraintValidation)

Add a composing constraint.

Parameters:

aConstraintValidation - to add

validate

public <L extends ValidationListener> void validate(ValidationContext<L> context)
