@Retention(value=RUNTIME) @Target(value=TYPE) @Inherited @Qualifier public @interface FacesValidator
The
presence of this annotation on a
class automatically registers the class with the runtime as a Validator. The value of the value() attribute is taken to be
the validator-id and the fully qualified class name of the
class to which this annotation is attached is taken to be the
validator-class. The implementation must guarantee that for
each class annotated with FacesValidator, found with the
algorithm in section JSF.11.5,
Application.addValidator(java.lang.String,java.lang.String)
is called, passing the derived validator-id as the first
argument and the derived validator-class as the second
argument. The implementation must guarantee that all such calls to
addValidator() happen during application startup time
and before any requests are serviced.

public abstract java.lang.String value
The value of this annotation
attribute is taken to be the validator-id with which
instances of this class of component can be instantiated by
calling Application.createValidator(java.lang.String).
If no value is specified, or the value is
null, the value is taken to be the return of calling
getSimpleName on the class to which this annotation
is attached and lowercasing the first character. If more than one
validator with this derived name is found, the results are undefined.
public abstract boolean isDefault
If true, the validator
id for this annotation is added to the list of default validators
by a call to Application.addDefaultValidatorId(java.lang.String).
