How to turn it Off?: @Annotation base validation

[luxspes]

How do I turn off Hibernate @Annotation validation?
My problem is simple, in CRUD I only need it enabled for the forms where I Create and Update but not for the forms where I Read and Delete (in fact, I need a completely different validation in each case, but for now, I just want to turn it off in my query by example (Read) forms...

Why? well,because, for exampel in the Create form, it makes sense to make the name of the Project mandatory, but in the query by example (Read) I leave it empty to indicate that I want any project regardless of its name.

How do I do that? How do you guys do this?

you're talking about a seam-gen generated app and that it uses an entity instance for the RESTIRCTIONS criteria in it's EntityQuery/list classes? It's a known problem and the only solution I know of is either remove the hibernate validations or remove the instance from the EntityQuery/list class and substitute variables for each search criteria. I chose the later solution as it was pretty easy to do.
