[cdi-dev] [JBoss JIRA] (CDI-164) Decorating built in beans

Decorating built in beans ------------------------- Key: CDI-164 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-164 Project: CDI Specification Issues Issue Type: Feature Request Components: Decorators Affects Versions: 1.0 Reporter: Jozef Hartinger Assignee: Pete Muir Fix For: 1.1 (Proposed) In CDI 1.0, decorators may only be applied to managed and session beans. Decorating built-in beans would make CDI extensions more powerful. One of the possible usecases is represented by decorating the Event bean https://gist.github.com/1223042 This would allow extensions to implement for example: * event queuing (Forge) * bidirectional mapping to another event technology without introducing infinite loops (Seam JMS)
