[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Updated: (JBMDR-21) Create a meta annotation for ignorable instance annotations

Create a meta annotation for ignorable instance annotations ----------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBMDR-21 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBMDR-21 Project: JBoss MetaData Repository Issue Type: Task Components: MetaData Reporter: Adrian Brock Assigned To: Ales Justin Fix For: JBossMDR-2.0.0.CR1 When AOP asks whether there are instance annotations it does this to decide whether an instance proxy is required. In some cases, e.g. the @JMX annotation, the instance annotation does not require an instance proxy instead we are just reusing the point cut language to invoke "advices" during deployment. To better handle this case, we should be able to meta annotate an annotation as not requiring an instance proxy, e.g. something like: @org.jboss.metadata.spi.annotation.InstanceAnnotation(false) public @interface JMX { ... } then we can tell aop whether an instance proxy is required.
