Enum Constant Summary

Enum Constants

Enum Constant and Description
DEFAULT No specific unwrapping behavior has been defined for this constraint and the default behavior applies: if there is exactly one maximally-specific type-compliant ValueExtractor and this extractor is marked with UnwrapByDefault, this extractor is applied and the constraint is applied to the value(s) wrapped by the annotated container.
SKIP The value is not unwrapped before validation, i.e.
UNWRAP The value is unwrapped before validation, i.e.

Enum Constant Detail

DEFAULT

public static final ValidateUnwrappedValue DEFAULT

No specific unwrapping behavior has been defined for this constraint and the default behavior applies: if there is exactly one maximally-specific type-compliant ValueExtractor and this extractor is marked with UnwrapByDefault, this extractor is applied and the constraint is applied to the value(s) wrapped by the annotated container. Otherwise, no value extractor is applied.

UNWRAP

public static final ValidateUnwrappedValue UNWRAP

The value is unwrapped before validation, i.e. the constraint is applied to the value(s) wrapped by the annotated container.

SKIP

public static final ValidateUnwrappedValue SKIP

The value is not unwrapped before validation, i.e. the constraint is applied to the annotated element.

Method Detail

values

public static ValidateUnwrappedValue[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

for (ValidateUnwrappedValue c : ValidateUnwrappedValue.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static ValidateUnwrappedValue valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null
