Email validator seems to consider null and empty string ("") valid email.
See
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/bval/trunk/bval-core/src/main/java/org/apache/bval/routines/EMailValidationUtils.java:
public static boolean isValid(Object value, Pattern aPattern) {*
if (value == null)
return true;
if (!(value instanceof CharSequence))
return false;
CharSequence seq = (CharSequence) value;
if (seq.length() == 0)
return true;*
Matcher m = aPattern.matcher(seq);
return m.matches();
}
That surprises me. Does it surprise anyone else? Can we get that changed?
I'd be happy to file an issue (and patch).
