I've now also implemented @Constructs. This did *not* turn out as nice as I would have liked, since there's no good way to reuse the containers implementation of stereotypes and defaulting, etc. I'm going to want to add some things to the portable extension SPI to make this easier to implement. We need to get this stuff in svn now. Gavin King gavin.king(a)gmail.com http://in.relation.to/Bloggers/Gavin http://hibernate.org http://seamframework.org
