Related classes (see the JIRA issue) http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBMICROCONT-22. i.e. When I deploy my factory or some other container, I also want the dependencies on a given class resolved before the factory is deployed. | <bean name="MainClass" class="com.acme.Main"> | <related>com.acme.Related</related> | </bean> | This was initially raised for AOP where we need to know that com.acme.Main instantiates a com.acme.Related programmatically and that Related has aspects whose dependencies need to be satisifed before we deploy/invoke on Main.
