On 10/07/2011 11:25 AM, All examples in http://docs.jboss.org/seam/3/config/latest/reference/en-US/html_single/ configure concrete classes for managed beans. The only case that seems an exception is 'Virtual Producer Fields', here an abstract type may be declared as a bean, but concrete bean instance must be set as its value by <s:value> child tag. If an abstract type were allowed to be configured as a managed bean, it had to be treated first as an injection point of a regular CDI bean and second as configuring that bean. I would expect docs to say something explicitly about that, but nothing in docs supports it. I think such a feature would be not only great but also unpredictable. Suppose there are 10 implementations of Identity in classpath, each with its own set of qualifiers and each used in its own way. What node <security:Identity><s:modifies/></security:Identity> is supposed to do? Should it replace all 10 beans with one configured by this node? Which of 10 implementations should be selected for that? Slava Max Rydahl Andersen wrote: > I'm not convinced that's an error. > > In that case the docs and examples would be wrong.
