JSR-303 dependency injection and Hibernate

Question

Spring 3.0.2, Hibernate 3.5.0, Hibernate-Validator 4.0.2.GA

I am trying to inject Spring dependencies into a ConstraintValidator using:

@PersistenceC         


        

Answer 1

You can do like this if you are using Spring Boot 2.1.0+:

@Configuration
@Lazy
class SpringValidatorConfiguration {


    @Bean
    @Lazy
    public HibernatePropertiesCustomizer hibernatePropertiesCustomizer(final Validator validator) {
        return new HibernatePropertiesCustomizer() {

            @Override
            public void customize(Map hibernateProperties) {
                hibernateProperties.put("javax.persistence.validation.factory", validator);
            }
        };
    }
}

The idea from Spring Boot 2.0.0 M6 - Add Hibernate Interceptor

and Spring Boot - Hibernate custom constraint doesn't inject Service
