symfony - Symfony2 how to load validation.yml

Question

When following Symfony2's validation documentation (http://symfony.com/doc/current/book/validation.html) the writer often refers to

src/Acme/BlogBundle/Resources/config/validation.yml

I also have this file, at the proper location (accounting for my bundle name and vendor ofcourse) but it is completely ignored.

Do I need to load this from somewhere?

You don't have to load the validation.yml programmaticaly. You just modify the config.yml to enable validation and to disable annotations:

framework:
    validation:      { enabled: true, enable_annotations: false }
