[cdi-dev] Interceptors for qualified @PostConstruct methods?

Hi all I've been running into a few cases where it'd be rather handy to be able to add handling of @PostConstruct (and to a lesser extent @PreDestroy) to a CDI interceptor, so I can run code before/after a @PostConstruct method is invoked. My specific use case is PrettyFaces, where I'd like to be able to perform additional injection into a class before @PostConstruct is run. URL query parameters are to be injected when a bean is constructed, before @PostConstruct is called. PrettyFaces currently uses an action method that's run at every request instead, but this works poorly for beans that are of scopes other than @RequestScoped and requires some hacks to use effectively. It's possible that this particular use case can be solved using a portable extension. PrettyFaces could add new Bean instances with a prettyfaces-specific qualifier, then app classes can use that qualifier on injection sites. Parameters not passed may be injected as null; the injected objects would be of dependent scope so that should be OK. I'm not sure that'll work yet, though, and I thought it'd be worth raising the idea of intercepting @PostConstruct and @PreDestroy anyway, in case that sets off ideas for others. Opinions? Is this a reasonable thing to want? Any obvious pitfalls or downsides to adding support for it? -- Craig Ringer
