[cdi-dev] [JBoss JIRA] (CDI-508) Nested classes except for static nested classes should not be managed beans

Martin Kouba created CDI-508: -------------------------------- Summary: Nested classes except for static nested classes should not be managed beans Key: CDI-508 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-508 Project: CDI Specification Issues Issue Type: Clarification Affects Versions: 1.2.Final Reporter: Martin Kouba The spec should explicitly state that all nested classes (inner, anonymous, local) except for static nested classes are not managed beans. *3.1.1. Which Java classes are managed beans?* is confusing: {quote} A *top-level* Java class is a managed bean if it is defined to be a managed bean by any other Java EE specification, or if it meets all of the following conditions: * It is not a *non-static inner class*. {quote} # a *top-level* Java class is never nested # term *non-static inner class* is inaccurate, static nested classes are not inner -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.11#6341)
