[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-475?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.sy... ] Antonin Stefanutti commented on CDI-475: ---------------------------------------- Hi Jozef, In the provided use case, the event is delivered to the {{@Observes ProcessAnnotatedType<@ContextName ? extends CamelContext>}} method for the {{CamelContext}} type being annotated with the {{@ContextName}} annotation at the class level only. That differs from the semantic provided by the {{@WithAnnotations}} which meets another need. In that perspective, that story is broader than CDI-472 and can be applied to other lifecycle events, e.g.: {code} <X> void processManagedBean(@Observes ProcessManagedBean<@MyQualifier X>){} {code} where the {{ProcessManagedBean}} would be delivered for every managed bean of type {{X}} qualified with the {{@MyQualifier}} qualifier. Besides the semantic of type annotations for parameterized type assignability in the typesafe resolution mechanism has to be assessed, for example: {code} @Produces List<@MyAnnotation MyType> producer(){} @Inject List<@MyAnnotation MyType> list; {code} These are just ideas that should be elaborated in the [Java SE 8 enhancement workshop|https://docs.google.com/document/d/1KUaxXIXJ_r-h5UJGIij6I4vrLS7u...]. Hope that clarifies at least in what way that differs from CDI-472. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.1#6329)
