[cdi-dev] [JBoss JIRA] (CDI-517) assignability to parameterized required type

[Martin Kouba (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-517?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13048526#comment-13048526 ] 

Martin Kouba commented on CDI-517:
----------------------------------

bq. Check out my sample app. It runs fine on Weld-1.1.23.Final but is broken in Weld-2.
This is expected.
bq. If there would be a working CDI-1.0 TCK test this would mean that Weld-1 does not pass the TCK.
Could you be more specific? What does it mean _"returning a ParameterizedType does NOT work in the EE6 RI"_? There is no test for assignability of a raw return type to a parameterized required type. But there's a test for assignability of a parameterized return type to a parameterized required type.

> 2 days before the CDI-1.1 spec went PDF the following backward-incomatible change was made:
> {quote}
> -A raw bean type is considered assignable to a parameterized required type if the raw types are identical.
> + A raw bean type is considered assignable to a parameterized required type if the raw types are identical and all type parameters of the bean type are either unbounded type variables or java.lang.Object.
> {quote} 
> This breaks a lot of projects and also is also not compatible with the JavaEE6 RI and the CDI-1.0 RI where this was explicitly allowed.
> This is a follow up to CDI-304.
