public class MovieBean { 
 
    @PersistenceContext(name = "jpa-examplesPU") 
    private EntityManager entityManager; 
    @Inject 
    private Validator validator; 
 
    public void validateMovie() { 
 
        Movie movie = new Movie(); 
 
        Set<ConstraintViolation<Movie>> violations = validator.validate(movie); 
        for (ConstraintViolation<Movie> violation : violations) { 
            System.out.println(violation.getPropertyPath()); 
            System.out.println(violation.getMessage()); 
        } 
    }
