Which step is too complicated and need simplification. Any example?
I just think there are too many levels of indirection. When I look at the
example on how to get to a
ValidatorFactory all seems good, but I get regularly lost when I start
browsing the code and click through classes like:
- ValidationProviderResolver
- GenericBuilderFactory
- SpecializedBuilderFactory
- ValidatorFactoryBuilder
- BootstrapState
- ValidatorFactory
- ValidatorBuilder
There seem to be two driving forces behind these interfaces/classes - type
safety
and covering all possible scenarios. Personally, I think a cast can
sometimes be easier to understand than
generics and maybe not all bases have to be covered.
One simplification could be the removal of ValidatorBuilder.
