Best practice for validating query parameters in Spring RestController

I have following in my method definition:

@RequestParam Map<String, Object> queryMap

I have to validate the values in Map. Are there any spring provided means or assert is the best practice for it?

General validation protocol for @RequestParam:

@RequestParam("number") @Min(5) @Max(10) int number

If you need to validate Map values, you may have to write certain custom validations.

There is JSR-303 standard about validation.

Use @Valid annotation.

Example code:

@RequestMapping(value = "/appointments", method = RequestMethod.POST)
public String add(@Valid AppointmentForm form, BindingResult result) {
    ....
}

static class AppointmentForm {

    @NotNull
    private Date date;
}
