Annotation Type Bic

  • @Documented
@Constraint(validatedBy=BicValidator.class)
@Target({METHOD,FIELD,ANNOTATION_TYPE,CONSTRUCTOR,PARAMETER})
@Retention(RUNTIME)
@AlternateSize(size1=8,
               size2=11)
public @interface Bic
    The annotated element must be a valid BIC (Business Identifier Code in the past also known as Bank Identifier Code).
    Supported types are Strings, other Objects are transfered to Strings, null elements are considered valid.
    If ignoreWhiteSpaces is set to true, whitespaces are removed before test is done.
    It's a formal test, against format definition, size and SWIFT country list.
    There is no test of validity of the BIC!
