[cdi-dev] [JBoss JIRA] (CDI-267) Consider annotating built in scopes with @Scope

[Pete Muir (JIRA)]

     [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-267?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Pete Muir resolved CDI-267.
---------------------------

         Assignee: Pete Muir
    Fix Version/s:     (was: 1.1 (Proposed))
       Resolution: Rejected


Perhaps had it been done this way from day 1, it could have worked, however doing this now is going to be backwards incompatible (as someone could be checking for @Scope or @NormalScope in their code).

> The @Inject spec defines the @Singleton annotation that can be used in @Inject impls or CDI . The annotations defined in CDI can only be used in CDI and could not be reused with @Inject impl.
> If technically (or per the spec) it is possible to annotate the CDI annotations with @Scope (in addition of @NormalScope) then those annotations could be reused in @Inject implemetentation, removing the need for proprietary annotations that do the same (com.google.inject.servlet.RequestScoped for example).
