Hibernate Validatorを使う

Hibernate Validatorとは、ドメインモデルに対する制約条件をエンティティクラスにアノテーションで記述することが出来るようにしたHibernateのプロダクトです。エンティティクラスに書くのでバリデーションのコードが重複しにくいことや、アノテーションで手軽にかけるということくらいがウリでしょうか。

Beanのバリデーションを行う仕様は、JSR303 Bean Validationで進められているようです。

  1. 必要なライブラリ
  2. Hibernate Validatorを用いるにはHibernate Core本体、およびCoreが依存するjarに加え、Hibernate Annotationが必要です。
    Core以外には以下のjarがあればよいと思います。

    • ejb3-persistence.jar
    • hibernate-annotations.jar
    • hibernate-commons-annotations.jar
    • hibernate-validator.jar

    最近色々なHibernateのプロダクトがTOPレベルに昇格してきましたが、各プロダクトのバージョンをそろえないとうまく動かなかったりするので注意する必要があります。特にAnnotationは、バージョンが違っていても例外やエラーとなるのではなくアノテーションが適用されずに正常終了というケースもあるので不具合の判別が難しいことがあります。以下はhibernate.orgのCompatibility Matrixの抜粋です。

    Package Version Core Annotations EntityManager Validator Search Shards Tools
    Hibernate Core 3.2.2 GA - 3.2.x, 3.3.x 3.2.x, 3.3.x 3.0.x 3.0.x 3.0.x 3.2.0 Beta9

  3. エンティティクラス
  4. AnnotationとValidatorを使ったエンティティです。すごく簡単です。

    @Entity
    public class Customer implements Serializable {
     @Id
     @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
     public int id;
     @NotNull
     @Length(max = 10)
     public String name;
     @Range(min = 0, max = 100)
     public int age;
     @Email
     public String email;
     @Past
     public Date birthday;
    }

    アノテーションによって上記のエンティティに設定した制約を纏めると以下のような感じです。


    • nameはNULLであってはいけない

    • nameは10文字以内でなければならない

    • ageは0から100の範囲内にある数値でなければならない

    • emailはEメールアドレスの仕様に沿った記述でなければならない

    • birthdayは過去日付でなければならない


    これがアノテーションで書けるのは簡単でいいですね。ビルトインで用意されている制約は他にも@CreditCardNumberとか@Size(コレクションなどのサイズ)などがあります。

  5. 定義ファイル
  6. hibernate.cfg.xmlはこんな感じです。Hibernate Annotation用のmapping定義を追加している程度です。

    <hibernate-configuration>
     <session-factory>
      <property name="dialect">org.hibernate.dialect.HSQLDialect</property>
      <property name="connection.driver_class">org.hsqldb.jdbcDriver</property>
      <property name="connection.username">sa</property>
      <property name="connection.password"></property>
      <property name="connection.url">jdbc:hsqldb:hsql://localhost:9001</property>
      <property name="show_sql">true</property>
      <property name="format_sql">true</property>
      <property name="hbm2ddl.auto">create</property>
      <mapping package="net.grandnature.example.entity"/>
      <mapping class="net.grandnature.example.invoice.entity.Customer"/>
     </session-factory>
    </hibernate-configuration>

  7. 動かす
  8. ・・・と言っても普通に動かすだけなのですが

    SessionFactory sessionFactory = new AnnotationConfiguration().configure().buildSessionFactory();
    Session session = sessionFactory.openSession();
    Transaction tx = session.beginTransaction();
    Customer customer = new Customer();
    customer.name = "KIDA Taro";
    customer.age = 76;
    customer.email = "kida@example.com";
    DateFormat parser = DateFormat.getDateInstance();
    ex.birthday = parser.parse("1930/12/06");
    session.save(ex);
    tx.commit();
    session.close();

    このまま動かすと普通に登録されます。もし、例えばbirthdayが未来日付だったりEメールアドレスに不正なものが設定されていたりと、エンティティの状態が制約に違反していると、save時にorg.hibernate.validator.InvalidStateExceptionが投げられます。制約に違反している内容の詳細はInvalidStateExceptionのgetInvalidValuesメソッドで返されるorg.hibernate.validator.InvalidValueの配列に格納されています。

    ただし、@NotNullの制約に引っかかったときはorg.hibernate.PropertyValueExceptionが投げられます。

Excellent goods from you, man. I've understand your stuff previous to and you're just too magnificent. I really like what you have acquired here, really like what you are saying and the way in which you say it. You make it entertaining and you still take care of to keep it wise. I can not wait to read much more from you. This is actually a wonderful site.

Between me and my husband we've owned more MP3 players over the years than I can count, including Sansas, the Ibiza Rhapsody, etc. But, the last few years I've settled down to one line of players. Why? Because I was happy to discover how well-designed and fun to use the underappreciated (and widely mocked) Zunes are.

Sorry for the huge review, but I'm really loving the new Zune, and hope this, as well as the excellent reviews some other people have written, will help you decide if it's the right choice for you.

The new Zune browser is surprisingly good, but not as good as the iPod's. It works well, but isn't as fast as Safari, and has a clunkier interface. If you occasionally plan on using the web browser that's not an issue, but if you're planning to browse the web alot from your PMP then the iPod's larger screen and better browser may be important.

If you're still on the fence: grab your favorite earphones, head down to a Best Buy and ask to plug them into a Zune then an iPod and see which one sounds better to you, and which interface makes you smile more. Then you'll know which is right for you.

I'll gear this review to 2 types of people: current Zune owners who are considering an upgrade, and people trying to decide between a Zune and an iPod. (There are other players worth considering out there, like the Sony Walkman X, but I hope this gives you enough info to make an informed decision of the Zune vs players other than the iPod line as well.)

This is getting a bit more subjective, but I much prefer the Zune Marketplace. The interface is colorful, has more flair, and some cool features like 'Mixview' that let you quickly see related albums, songs, or other users related to what you're listening to. Clicking on one of those will center on that item, and another set of "neighbors" will come into view, allowing you to navigate around exploring by similar artists, songs, or users. Speaking of users, the Zune "Social" is also great fun, letting you find others with shared tastes and becoming friends with them. You then can listen to a playlist created based on an amalgamation of what all your friends are listening to, which is also enjoyable. Those concerned with privacy will be relieved to know you can prevent the public from seeing your personal listening habits if you so choose.

Hands down, Apple's app store wins by a mile. It's a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I'm not sure I'd want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.

Apple now has Rhapsody as an app, which is a great start, but it is currently hampered by the inability to store locally on your iPod, and has a dismal 64kbps bit rate. If this changes, then it will somewhat negate this advantage for the Zune, but the 10 songs per month will still be a big plus in Zune Pass' favor.

I don't really like livejournal or xanga. I already have both of those. I was going to try deadjournal because I read on here that it was really good, but I don't want to have to pay for it and you have to have an invite code to get in free. Does anybody have an invite code they could give me, or a suggestion on another free blogging website I could try? Any information would be helpful..

Wow I just adore her! She is gosh darn beautiful and a really good actor. I don’t think the show V is all that good, none the less I watch it anyway just so I can see Morena.

I personally never even heard of her before The V, now I’ll watch anything she’s on.

Zune and iPod: Most people compare the Zune to the Touch, but after seeing how slim and surprisingly small and light it is, I consider it to be a rather unique hybrid that combines qualities of both the Touch and the Nano. It's very colorful and lovely OLED screen is slightly smaller than the touch screen, but the player itself feels quite a bit smaller and lighter. It weighs about 2/3 as much, and is noticeably smaller in width and height, while being just a hair thicker.

If you're still on the fence: grab your favorite earphones, head down to a Best Buy and ask to plug them into a Zune then an iPod and see which one sounds better to you, and which interface makes you smile more. Then you'll know which is right for you.

Sorry for the huge review, but I'm really loving the new Zune, and hope this, as well as the excellent reviews some other people have written, will help you decide if it's the right choice for you.

Hands down, Apple's app store wins by a mile. It's a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I'm not sure I'd want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.

The new Zune browser is surprisingly good, but not as good as the iPod's. It works well, but isn't as fast as Safari, and has a clunkier interface. If you occasionally plan on using the web browser that's not an issue, but if you're planning to browse the web alot from your PMP then the iPod's larger screen and better browser may be important.

I'll gear this review to 2 types of people: current Zune owners who are considering an upgrade, and people trying to decide between a Zune and an iPod. (There are other players worth considering out there, like the Sony Walkman X, but I hope this gives you enough info to make an informed decision of the Zune vs players other than the iPod line as well.)

Apple now has Rhapsody as an app, which is a great start, but it is currently hampered by the inability to store locally on your iPod, and has a dismal 64kbps bit rate. If this changes, then it will somewhat negate this advantage for the Zune, but the 10 songs per month will still be a big plus in Zune Pass' favor.

Zune and iPod: Most people compare the Zune to the Touch, but after seeing how slim and surprisingly small and light it is, I consider it to be a rather unique hybrid that combines qualities of both the Touch and the Nano. It's very colorful and lovely OLED screen is slightly smaller than the touch screen, but the player itself feels quite a bit smaller and lighter. It weighs about 2/3 as much, and is noticeably smaller in width and height, while being just a hair thicker.

Between me and my husband we've owned more MP3 players over the years than I can count, including Sansas, the Ibiza Rhapsody, etc. But, the last few years I've settled down to one line of players. Why? Because I was happy to discover how well-designed and fun to use the underappreciated (and widely mocked) Zunes are.

This is getting a bit more subjective, but I much prefer the Zune Marketplace. The interface is colorful, has more flair, and some cool features like 'Mixview' that let you quickly see related albums, songs, or other users related to what you're listening to. Clicking on one of those will center on that item, and another set of "neighbors" will come into view, allowing you to navigate around exploring by similar artists, songs, or users. Speaking of users, the Zune "Social" is also great fun, letting you find others with shared tastes and becoming friends with them. You then can listen to a playlist created based on an amalgamation of what all your friends are listening to, which is also enjoyable. Those concerned with privacy will be relieved to know you can prevent the public from seeing your personal listening habits if you so choose.

If you occasionally plan on using the web browser that's not an issue, but if you're planning to browse the web alot from your PMP then the iPod's larger screen and better browser may be important.

The Zune concentrates on being a Portable Media Player. Not a web browser. Not a game machine. Maybe in the future it'll do even better in those areas, but for now it's a fantastic way to organize and listen to your music and videos, and is without peer in that regard. The iPod's strengths are its web browsing and apps. If those sound more compelling, perhaps it is your best choice.

I'll gear this review to a couple of types of men and women: present Zune proprietors who will be thinking of an upgrade, and people today seeking to come to a decision among a Zune and an iPod. (You'll find other players worth considering around, like the Sony Walkman X, but I hope this gives you enough info to produce an informed determination from the Zune vs gamers apart from the iPod line at the same time.)

What a great blog. I spend days on the internet reading blogs, about tons of different subjects. I have to first of all give kudos to whoever created your website and second of all to you for writing what i can only describe as an amazing post. I honestly believe there is a skill to writing articles that only a few posses and frankly you have it. The combination of informative and quality content is definitely extremely rare with the large amount of blogs on the internet.

Zune and iPod: Most people compare the Zune to the Touch, but after seeing how slim and surprisingly small and light it is, I consider it to be a rather unique hybrid that combines qualities of both the Touch and the Nano. It's very colorful and lovely OLED screen is slightly smaller than the touch screen, but the player itself feels quite a bit smaller and lighter. It weighs about 2/3 as much, and is noticeably smaller in width and height, while being just a hair thicker.

Sorry for the huge review, but I'm really loving the new Zune, and hope this, as well as the excellent reviews some other people have written, will help you decide if it's the right choice for you.

The new Zune browser is surprisingly good, but not as good as the iPod's. It works well, but isn't as fast as Safari, and has a clunkier interface. If you occasionally plan on using the web browser that's not an issue, but if you're planning to browse the web alot from your PMP then the iPod's larger screen and better browser may be important.

Hands down, Apple's app store wins by a mile. It's a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I'm not sure I'd want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.

If you're still on the fence: grab your favorite earphones, head down to a Best Buy and ask to plug them into a Zune then an iPod and see which one sounds better to you, and which interface makes you smile more. Then you'll know which is right for you.

Between me and my husband we've owned more MP3 players over the years than I can count, including Sansas, the Ibiza Rhapsody, etc. But, the last few years I've settled down to one line of players. Why? Because I was happy to discover how well-designed and fun to use the underappreciated (and widely mocked) Zunes are.

This is getting a bit more subjective, but I much prefer the Zune Marketplace. The interface is colorful, has more flair, and some cool features like 'Mixview' that let you quickly see related albums, songs, or other users related to what you're listening to. Clicking on one of those will center on that item, and another set of "neighbors" will come into view, allowing you to navigate around exploring by similar artists, songs, or users. Speaking of users, the Zune "Social" is also great fun, letting you find others with shared tastes and becoming friends with them. You then can listen to a playlist created based on an amalgamation of what all your friends are listening to, which is also enjoyable. Those concerned with privacy will be relieved to know you can prevent the public from seeing your personal listening habits if you so choose.

Apple now has Rhapsody as an app, which is a great start, but it is currently hampered by the inability to store locally on your iPod, and has a dismal 64kbps bit rate. If this changes, then it will somewhat negate this advantage for the Zune, but the 10 songs per month will still be a big plus in Zune Pass' favor.
