[cdi-dev] [JBoss JIRA] (CDI-50) Ability to veto beans, both unconditionally and based on classes visible

[Mark Struberg (JIRA)]

     [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-50?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Mark Struberg reopened CDI-50:
------------------------------



Our preface still mentions @Requires. Plus it's not clear in 11.5.6 what happens if there are package-info.java @Vetoed for the same package in different JARs. 

Do we need to scan all jars for those first and merge the packages upfront? That could slow down scanning.

It' also not clear from the Java Lang Spec what happens if you don't use package-info.java but annotate the package in a single class file.
package-info.java is recommended, but the spec allows other ways as well:

> This should support both a straight veto, and conditional based on classes available.
> Seam Solder supports this as @Veto and @Requires({Foo.class, Bar.class}).
> Mark Struberg proposed using @Optional
