Re: [hibernate-dev] Scanner contract

Set<Package> getPackagesInJar(URL jartoScan, Set<Class<? extends Annotation>> annotationsToLookFor); Set<Class<?>> getClassesInJar(URL jartoScan, Set<Class<? extends Annotation>> annotationsToLookFor); but currently we always pass empty to getPackagesInJar and a static set of values to getClassesInJar. So, to me it is questionable whether that is really needed. The scanner could just do these since the code calling scanner never varies these. Now, for getResourceStreams[1] if we drop the notion of any options for getPackageNames and getClassNames I can see the param being just a varargs/array of "scan option" objects. But to me, this highlights the niceness of "parameter objects". I didn't mean that ScanOption should not be a parameter object, I was just wondering why it is one ScanOption*s* object instead of a list/var-args of option objects.
