/**
* This class is the entry point for Bean Validation.
*
* There are three ways to bootstrap it:
*
* - The easiest approach is to build the default {@link ValidatorFactory}.
*
* ValidatorFactory factory = Validation.buildDefaultValidatorFactory();
*
* In this case, the default validation provider resolver
* will be used to locate available providers.
*
* The chosen provider is defined as followed:
*
* - if the XML configuration defines a provider, this provider is used
* - if the XML configuration does not define a provider or if no XML
* configuration is present the first provider returned by the
* {@link ValidationProviderResolver} instance is used.
*
*
* -
* The second bootstrap approach allows to choose a custom
* {@code ValidationProviderResolver}. The chosen
* {@link ValidationProvider} is then determined in the same way
* as in the default bootstrapping case (see above).
*
* Configuration<?> configuration = Validation
* .byDefaultProvider()
* .providerResolver( new MyResolverStrategy() )
* .configure();
* ValidatorFactory factory = configuration.buildValidatorFactory();
*
*
* -
* The third approach allows you to specify explicitly and in
* a type safe fashion the expected provider.
*
* Optionally you can choose a custom {@code ValidationProviderResolver}.
*
* ACMEConfiguration configuration = Validation
* .byProvider(ACMEProvider.class)
* .providerResolver( new MyResolverStrategy() ) // optionally set the provider resolver
* .configure();
* ValidatorFactory factory = configuration.buildValidatorFactory();
*
*
*
*
* Note:
*
* -
* The {@code ValidatorFactory} object built by the bootstrap process should be cached
* and shared amongst {@code Validator} consumers.
*
* - This class is thread-safe.
