Hibernate @NotNull (only if another property isn't null?)

I have some sections in a form which if ticked yes, its sub sections become mandatory.

How Can I do this?

@NotNullIfOtherPropertyNotNull(PropertyName='OtherProperty')
private myProperty;

This is easy to do as a type level constraint. You just create something like

@CascadingNotNull(ifNotNull="otherProperty", thenAlsoNotNull="myProperty")

If you put that on the class, then in your ConstraintHandler you can use whatever flavour of reflect/bean library you like to get the two properties and do the check.
