Frigo Coder created CDI-740: ------------------------------- Summary: Proxy fields can be accessed if they are protected or package private Key: CDI-740 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-740 Project: CDI Specification Issues Issue Type: Bug Components: Beans, Contexts, Java EE integration Environment: IBM WebSphere Liberty, Java EE 7.0 Full Platform Reporter: Frigo Coder CDI detects and rejects proxyable beans if they expose a public field. However protected and package private fields are silently accepted. In the following example the method returns 0 instead of the correct value of 8: {code:java} @ApplicationScoped public class Car { @Inject private Engine engine; public int numberOfEngineCylinders() { return engine.cylinders; } } @RequestScoped public class Engine { protected int cylinders; @PostConstruct public void init() { cylinders = 8; } } {code} -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v7.12.1#712002)
