Not passing through Bean Validation constraints on containers

[KangoV]

Bean Validation 2.0 added the ability to have constraints on containers:

• List
• Set
• Map
• Optional

I think there may be some others though

I have passAnnotations = { Introspected.class } set as a style (it seems this is needed).

I have the following attribute:

@JsonProperty("roles")
Set<@Size(min=2) String> getRoles();

The constraint will not get added and ends up as:

@JsonProperty("roles")
@Override
public Set<String> getRoles() {
    return roles;
}

In the implementation.

I did read somewhere (on here) that this is a compiler/annotation processing problem. Not sure if it still is.
