Tomas Remes created CDI-542: ------------------------------- Summary: "10.2.2. Firing events asynchronously" update/enhancements Key: CDI-542 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-542 Project: CDI Specification Issues Issue Type: Feature Request Affects Versions: 2.0-EDR1 Reporter: Tomas Remes Priority: Minor This chapter (similar as the preceding) defines in general what does it mean to "fire an event" (sync vs async). Let say I am ordinary reader reading the spec from the beginning and I come to this chapter. First of all I guess I will struggle little bit with the notion of ??resolved synchronous observers?? (vs ??resolved asynchronous observers??) I think the following important information from "10.3. Observer resolution" could be mentioned earlier or some general description/example could be handy: {quote} * The event is fired synchronously and the observer is defined with @Observes. * The event is fired asynchronously and the observer is defined with @Observes or @ObservesAsync. {quote} Second there is following sentence which TBH I have had fairly hard times to understand: {quote} If synchronous observer have to be notified, fireAsync returns immediately after the last synchronous observer has returned. Otherwise it returns immediately. {quote} ...and is IMO wrong. There should be "observers have to be" or "observer has to be" and it could be bit more explanatory. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
