Re: [weld-dev] [jsr-299-eg] Maintenance release

Hi all, See comments below. On Tue, Dec 29, 2009 at 3:44 PM, Gavin King <gavin.king(a)gmail.com&gt; wrote: I'm sure you meant @NormalScope. Can I ask what the motivation is for preventing annotation members on scope annotations? I could imagine some custom scopes needing some extra metadata, and the scope annotation seems like a handy place to put it. I don't understand. 7.2 seems to explicitly state that interceptors/decorators *do* apply to producer methods. Can you clarify? This is good, but I think we should be able to say something more general. We'd also want to outlaw this: class Foo { @Inject @BarProduct Baz; @Produces @FooProduct Baz produceBaz() { ... } } class Bar { @Inject @FooProduct Baz; @Produces @BarProduct Baz produceBaz() { ... } } So, I think it'd be very helpful to have a section devoted to cyclic dependencies. Some kind of cyclic dependencies are ok while others are not, and I think we can enumerate these. On a related note, I had asked once about how this is handled: @RequestScoped class Foo { @Inject Bar bar; @PostConstruct void init() { bar.doSomething(); } ... } @RequestScoped class Bar { @Inject Foo foo; @PostConstruct void init() { foo.doSomethingElse(); } ... } Is this maintenance release an appropriate time to address this question? (I haven't yet checked how Weld handles this) Also, I'm a little surprised your list didn't contain a ConversationManager API. Is this too big of a thing for a maintenance release? It seems pretty important to me. And even if we can't address it for the MR, maybe we can at least start a discussion to nail down the API. Sooner is better than later, I think. Thanks, -Matt
