[weld-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (WELD-568) When overridden methods with covariant return types are intercepted, the result is a duplicate interceptor definition

    [ https://jira.jboss.org/browse/WELD-568?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12541689#action_12541689 ] 

Marius Bogoevici commented on WELD-568:
---------------------------------------

One idea discussed on IRC was this: if WeldClass.getWeldMethods() behavies in a similar way to Class.getMethods(), then it will return *only* public methods, which is not desirable. The idea is to provide a catch-all method with the name getContainerAccessibleMethods() (naming TBD) which should provide access to all the methods of the class, including methods which are inherited, but not bridge methods generated for covariants (TBD).

> The root of the problem is that WeldClass.getWeldMethods() returns 3 methods (subclass, superclass, bridge) when the overriden method has a covariant return type. We need either to fix WeldClass or work around this.
