[cdi-dev] [JBoss JIRA] (CDI-420) add a bean-discovery-mode 'scoped'

[Martin Kouba (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-420?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13248283#comment-13248283 ] 

Martin Kouba commented on CDI-420:
----------------------------------

Hm, what about making it more generic? E.g. something like introducing "exclude filters" for Bean discovery:
{code:xml}
<beans xmlns="http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/javaee">

  <!-- These filters are applied during type discovery -->
  <scan>
    <exclude name="com.acme.rest.*" />
  </scan>

  <!-- These filters are applied during bean discovery -->
   <process>
     <exclude name="*">
       <if-no-bean-defining-annotation />
      </exclude>
   </process>

</beans>
{code}

> This is for some future CDI release.
> We currently only have 3 bean-discovery-modes
> * none
> * all
> * annotated
> The spec also currently says that ProcessAnnotatedType will only get fired (12.4) for 
> • each Java class, interface or enum deployed in an explicit bean archive, and 
> • each Java class with a bean defining annotation in an implicit bean archive. 
> • each session bean
> Which means that we do not get the ProcessAnnotatedType (PAT) event for any class in an 'annotated' or 'implicit' BDA which does _not_ have a bean defining annotation. 
> It might be useful to fire the ProcessAnnotatedType for all classes, but do not pick them up as Beans if they (after PAT) do not have a valid scope. Effectively doing the processing but not make them @Dependent automatically if there is no scope annotation at the end of the PAT processing.
> I'm not yet 100% sure how important this distinction is in practice. Just writing this up to not forget about the idea...
