Description

The bean validation is not working correctly

If you try to merge a new entity.

EntityManager em = entityManagerFactory.createEntityManager();
Person person = new Person();
person.setName("Oliver"); // Employee.name is annotated @NotNull
person = em.merge(person);

you get a ConstraintValidationException, although name is set.
