[cdi-dev] [JBoss JIRA] (CDI-697) Provide delegating/forwarding implementations of the annotated type model classes

[John Ament (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-697?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13381135#comment-13381135 ] 

John Ament commented on CDI-697:
--------------------------------

I agree, but here's what the spec says

bq. getFields() returns all default-access, public, protected or private fields declared on the type and those declared on any supertypes. The container should call AnnotatedField.getJavaMember().getDeclaringClass() to determine the type in the type hierarchy that declared the field.

The problem is that 11.4.1 doesn't clarify that fields() etc use these same rules.  I think that's something easy to clarify in the spec text.

> A lot of duplicate efforts could be eliminated if the CDI SPI supplied delegating implementations of each of the {{Annotated*}} SPI interfaces.  These implementations would assist in creating objects suitable for passing to {{ProcessAnnotatedType#setAnnotatedType(AnnotatedType)}} (and the like) when the configurator APIs prove to be too simplistic.
