[weld-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (WELD-912) Specializing beans in different bean archives does not work

[Fabricio Lemos (Commented) (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WELD-912?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12643974#comment-12643974 ] 

Fabricio Lemos commented on WELD-912:
-------------------------------------

I´m also having problems with plain @Alternative (without @Specializes). The @Alternative bean does not replace the original bean if the original bean is in an JAR. I agree it is a really serious bug, which prevents the implementation of modular dependencies (http://relation.to/Bloggers/ModularDependencies) which IMO is the most important use case for Alternatives.
