Is it possible to access a field value, where field name is described in annotation which annotate another field in class.

For example:

```
@Entity
public class User {

    @NotBlank
    private String password;

    @Match(field = "password")
    private String passwordConfirmation;
}

```

Annotation:

```
@Target(ElementType.FIELD)
@Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)
@Constraint(validatedBy = FieldMatchValidator.class)
@Documented
public @interface Match {

    String message() default "{}";

    Class<?>[] groups() default {};

    Class<? extends Payload>[] payload() default {};

    String field();
}

```

Now, is it possible to access field password from class User in ConstraintValidator implementaion class?

**Edit:**

I wrote something like this:

```
public class MatchValidator implements ConstraintValidator<Match, Object> {

private String mainField;
private String secondField;
private Class clazz;

@Override
public void initialize(final Match match) {
    clazz = User.class;

    final Field[] fields = clazz.getDeclaredFields();
    for (Field field : fields) {
        if (field.isAnnotationPresent(Match.class)) {
            mainField = field.getName();
        }
    }

    secondField = match.field();
}

@Override
public boolean isValid(final Object value, final ConstraintValidatorContext constraintValidatorContext) {
    try {
        Object o; //Now how to get the User entity instance?

        final Object firstObj = BeanUtils.getProperty(o, mainField);
        final Object secondObj = BeanUtils.getProperty(o, secondField);

        return firstObj == null && secondObj == null || firstObj != null && firstObj.equals(secondObj);
    } catch (final Exception ignore) {
        ignore.printStackTrace();
    }
    return true;
}
}

```

Now the question is how can I get the User object instance and compare fields values?
