Employee.java

package com.sample.model;

import javax.validation.constraints.Email;

public class Employee {

	private int id;

	private String name;

	@Email
	public String emailId;

	public Employee(int id, String name, String emailId) {
		this.id = id;
		this.name = name;
		this.emailId = emailId;
	}

	public int getId() {
		return id;
	}

	public void setId(int id) {
		this.id = id;
	}

	public String getName() {
		return name;
	}

	public void setName(String name) {
		this.name = name;
	}

	public String getEmailId() {
		return emailId;
	}

	public void setEmailId(String emailId) {
		this.emailId = emailId;
	}

}

 

Test.java

package com.sample.test;

import java.util.Set;

import javax.validation.*;
import javax.validation.ValidatorFactory;

import com.sample.model.Employee;

public class Test {
	private static ValidatorFactory validatorFactory = Validation.buildDefaultValidatorFactory();
	private static Validator validator = validatorFactory.getValidator();

	private static void validateBean(Employee emp) {
		System.out.println("************************************");
		Set<ConstraintViolation<Employee>> validationErrors = validator.validate(emp);

		if (validationErrors.size() == 0) {
			System.out.println("No validation errors....");
		}

		for (ConstraintViolation<Employee> violation : validationErrors) {
			System.out.println(violation.getPropertyPath() + "," + violation.getMessage());
		}
		System.out.println("");
	}

	public static void main(String args[]) {

		Employee emp1 = new Employee(1, "Krishna", "AA");
		System.out.println("Validation errors on bean emp1");
		validateBean(emp1);

		Employee emp2 = new Employee(2, "Siva", "krihsna@abc.com");
		System.out.println("Validation errors on bean emp2");
		validateBean(emp2);
	}
}

 

Output

Validation errors on bean emp1
************************************

Validation errors on bean emp2
************************************
