[cdi-dev] [JBoss JIRA] (CDI-517) assignability to parameterized required type

assignability to parameterized required type -------------------------------------------- Key: CDI-517 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-517 Project: CDI Specification Issues Issue Type: Bug Components: Resolution Affects Versions: 1.1.PFD, 1.2.Final Reporter: Mark Struberg 2 days before the CDI-1.1 spec went PDF the following backward-incomatible change was made: {quote} -A raw bean type is considered assignable to a parameterized required type if the raw types are identical. + A raw bean type is considered assignable to a parameterized required type if the raw types are identical and all type parameters of the bean type are either unbounded type variables or java.lang.Object. {quote} This breaks a lot of projects and also is also not compatible with the JavaEE6 RI and the CDI-1.0 RI where this was explicitly allowed. This is a follow up to CDI-304.
