@Retention(value=RUNTIME) @Target(value=TYPE) @Inherited public @interface FacesValidator
The presence of this annotation on a class automatically registers the class with the runtime as a
Validator
. The value of thevalue()
attribute is taken to be the validator-id and the fully qualified class name of the class to which this annotation is attached is taken to be the validator-class. The implementation must guarantee that for each class annotated withFacesValidator
, found with the algorithm in section JSF.11.5,Application.addValidator(java.lang.String,java.lang.String)
is called, passing the derived validator-id as the first argument and the derived validator-class as the second argument. The implementation must guarantee that all such calls toaddValidator()
happen during application startup time and before any requests are serviced.
