[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-470?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.sy... ] Pete Muir commented on CDI-470: ------------------------------- It only applies to the current package, and not to subpackages. Taxonomically, Java does not define subpackages as a type of package, but as a unique indentity - take a look the Java Language Specification. However, in common usage, this definition has become blurred, so I think we could add a note to the spec here, that makes this point. Recursive vetoing is possibly interesting, but note that the note {quote} When placed on package, all beans in the package are prevented from being installed. If packages are split across jars, non-portable behavior results. An application can prevent packages being split across jars by sealing the package {quote} would need to apply to subpackage. IOW all packages and subpackages must be in the same JAR. Java provides no way to enforce this unfortunately. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.1#6329)
