I created a custom validator for a specific app.
The plugin seems to be able to register the constraint and is able to initialize the constraints but does not ever call processValidate.
What could be wrong? >_<

Roshan,
Yes, they’re just classes, so you can instantiate one and call its validate() method directly if you like.
