Hi folks!
Old story again:
The spec is not really clear imo what the term 'bean archive'
(aka BDA) does mean.
The section 5.1 (Modularity) indicates that a bunch of jars
might get interpreted as a 'bean archive', which in hindsight of
isolation makes sense. E.g. it does not make sense that beans
from different jars in an EARs shared lib folder cannot 'see'
each other in respect to CDI.
This is the one which also applies to cdi-1.0 @Alternatives and
@Interceptor rules, right?
Otoh there is also section 12 which uses the same term 'bean
archive' for single JARs (or ClassPath entries like
WEB-INF/classes).
So which one should be it? Imo the 2 are fundamentally
different.
Any ideas or comments? Did I get this wrong?
LieGrue,
