Hi, support for Joda time is new in Validator 4.2. See also https://hibernate.onjira.com/browse/HV-307 as you can see in the pom joda time is an optional dependency for HV 4.3 (https://repository.jboss.org/nexus/service/local/repositories/central/content/org/hibernate/hibernate-validator/4.2.0.Final/hibernate-validator-4.2.0.Final.pom_
As far as I know AS 7 is still shipped w/ Validator 4.1 and its dependencies. There is an issue for upgrading to Hv 4.2 in AS 7 - https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-967 If the user want to use the Validator version provided w/ AS7, then he indeed has to update the jars and module definitions. If he has all jars (HV 4.2 + deps) bundles within the application I am not quite sure how class loading works in this case. I wonder though what he is actually validating (the actual annotated bean). He is mentioning HV 4.1 and there we did not even have joda time support so I don't see how he validated Joda time instances using 4.1 without providing a custom ConstraintValidator.
