Romain Manni-Bucau created CDI-590: -------------------------------------- Summary: Provide a way to produce any type in a producer Key: CDI-590 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-590 Project: CDI Specification Issues Issue Type: Epic Reporter: Romain Manni-Bucau Note: this is a follow up "adding generic producers to CDI 2.0?" thread on the list It is common to rely on a subsystem (another IoC, a coercing system, ...) to produce values. Today a producer can't say "I produce anything in a safe" manner. Idea would be for injection point aware producers with a qualifier to producer Object and match all types. It needs another flag (can be in @Qualifier or another annotation it is not really important) to say "I produce safely any type". I did a PoC on github: https://github.com/rmannibucau/generic-producer-cdi but think it can be a nice feature of CDI 2.0 since it would avoid users to have to dig into extensions for several simple cases (configuration, bridge to other IoC...) -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.11#64026)
