Is there an implementation of JSR-303 (bean validation) available?
I know there are non-standard frameworks such as commons-validator, and hibernate validator.
I wanted to know if someone knows an implementation of the official standard.
Solution 1:
There are 2 compliant implementations now:
- Apache Bean Validation (formerly agimatec)
- Hibernate Validator
You can access a benchmark and a quick description of both here: http://carinae.net/2010/06/benchmarking-hibernate-validator-and-apache-beanvalidation-the-two-jsr-303-implementations/
Solution 2:
Hibernate Validator is the reference implementation of JSR-303
Solution 3:
Implementations:
- agimatec-validation
- Hibernate Validator
Solution 4:
OVaL is not a JSR-303 validator, but it can convert jsr303 constraints into its own.
