[cdi-dev] [JBoss JIRA] (CDI-293) Reconsider enum support

Reconsider enum support ----------------------- Key: CDI-293 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-293 Project: CDI Specification Issues Issue Type: Feature Request Affects Versions: 1.1.PRD Reporter: Jozef Hartinger Assignee: Pete Muir Fix For: 1.1.PFD The current version of the spec introduces support for scanning of enums and injection into enums. I discussed this with Pete and Stuart this week and the conclusion was that it is probably a mistake. There is a problem with the injection part if the enum is shared across multiple CDI applications. If we dropped the injection part, the scanning and processing part themselves does not make much sense as the result of scanning would not be processed by CDI anyhow. However, it is convenient for some extensions to have enums scanned.
