Martin Kouba commented on CDI-702:
----------------------------------

bq. Funnily right now one seems to get ProcessAnnotatedType for all classes (even from foreign WARs), but getBeans() later (at Runtime) does properly isolate.

Because {{BeanManager.getBeans()}} does refer [Inter-module injection|http://docs.jboss.org/cdi/spec/2.0/cdi-spec.html#inter_module_injection] which follows accessibility rules.

> We observe a undesired behavior on Weld,  which is during CDI bootstrap, all classes from both the EAR lib folder and all WAR lib folders are available to CDI extensions in the EAR lib folder as well as to CDI extensions in all WAR lib folders. Basically, the extension class can see everything in an .ear regardless where the extension class resides. It completely ignores classloading hierarchy.
> e.g.
> myApp.ear
>   lib\myLib.jar (LibExtensionA.class, LibOne.class)
>   myWarA.war (WarAExtension.class, myWarAServlet.class)
>   myWarB.war (WarBExtension.class, myWarBServlet.class)
> In this example,LibExtensionA, WarAExtension and WarBExtension can observe the classes of 
> LibOne, myWarAServlet and myWarBServlet.
> This kind of contradicts with the classloading rules, where separate .war archives packaged under the same .ear should not be able to see each other's class by default, unless they both use the same classloader.
> We discussed with Weld dev team (Martin, Thomas, Matej) and Anotine. The feedback is that CDI spec is unclear on the "observer resolution". I would like to relaunch the discussion to make this clarified and fixed. Please comment.
