Hi All, In Seam Social, in order to support polymorphism I need the service beans to be qualified with the name of the service. For instance : @RelatedTo("LinkedIn") public class LinkedInJackson extends OAuthServiceBase implements LinkedIn It allows users to inject a service bean like that @Inject @RelatedTo("LinkedIn") OAuthService service; As I want to ease user life I also need to support this kind of injection (same results as above) @Inject LinkedIn service;

As LinkedIn interface has only one implementation, using a qualifier when I use its specific type is useless and could be confusing. Until now I registered the second version of the bean (without a qualifier) thru a producer, but as each service bean will have both registration (with and without qualifier) I decided to simplify this bi-registration with an extension (it will also ease the writing of new service bean for third party developers). My extension works in 2 steps : First it collects in a Map all the annotated type which are OAuthService children and have a @RelatedTo qualifier : public void processServicesBeans(@Observes ProcessManagedBean<OAuthService> pbean) { Annotated annotated = pbean.getAnnotated(); if (annotated.isAnnotationPresent(RelatedTo.class)) { RelatedTo related = annotated.getAnnotation(RelatedTo.class); String name = related.value(); servicesBean.put(name, pbean.getAnnotatedBeanClass()); } } Then, after the bean discovery, it register a new version of each Qualified bean without the qualifier (thanks to solder !). public void afterBeanDiscovery(@Observes AfterBeanDiscovery abd, BeanManager bm) { for (String type : servicesBean.keySet()) { AnnotatedType<? extends OAuthService> annotatedType = servicesBean.get(type); AnnotatedTypeBuilder annoBuilder = new AnnotatedTypeBuilder().readFromType(annotatedType).removeFromClass( RelatedTo.class); AnnotatedType myAnnotatedType = annoBuilder.create(); BeanBuilder beanBuilder = new BeanBuilder(bm).readFromType(myAnnotatedType); abd.addBean(beanBuilder.create()); } } This seems to work quite well except that my service Beans have a @Postconstruct method and at initialization Weld throws the following exception org.jboss.weld.exceptions.DefinitionException: WELD-000805 Cannot have more than one post construct method annotated with @PostConstruct for public class org.jboss.seam.social.linkedin.LinkedInJackson

If I remove the @Postconstuct in the AnnotatedTypeBuilder by changing its declaration by : AnnotatedTypeBuilder annoBuilder = new AnnotatedTypeBuilder().readFromType(annotatedType).removeFromClass( RelatedTo.class).removeFromAll(PostConstruct.class); Initialization works, I have my 2 beans, but the one I registered without qualifier won't execute the @PostConstruct method (since I had to remove it). I guess I'm missing something in the CDI meta-meta-maze :-). Any help or suggestion would be nice.

Are there really two @PostConstruct methods? I would guess that what happens is that Solder is somehow collapsing multiple levels of classes into one or something. Yes there are Postconstructs in ancestors of the class and you're right Solder seems to collapse them. So I'll try to create my bean without solder :-(... if the generic bean don't fit my needs.
