Seam Identity Problem with Hibernate Validation

[tony.herstell1]

Using seams cool identity management stuff:

<security:jpa-identity-store 
        user-class="nz.co.softwarefactory.risingstars.model.User"
        role-class="nz.co.softwarefactory.risingstars.model.Role"/>

    @UserPrincipal
    @Email
    @Column(unique = true)
    private String email;

<h:inputText id="login_username" 
   value="#{credentials.username}" required="true"
        title="#{messages.entity_user_username_tooltip}" size="70" />

I am inside a decorator with validateAll

<s:validateAll>
        <ui:insert name="content" />
</s:validateAll>

I am using email as my UserPrincipal but the Hibernate Annotation is being ignored for some reason.

Any ideas?

Unfortunately the entity annotations don't pass through to the credentials component.  One possible way to get validation is to extend credentials and add the validation annotations yourself.

Bummer.

Now who forgot that?

It's not an oversight, it's just the way Hibernate validator works.
