[weld-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Closed: (WELD-614) Scalability problem with class framework APIs

Scalability problem with class framework APIs --------------------------------------------- Key: WELD-614 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/browse/WELD-614 Project: Weld Issue Type: Bug Components: Bootstrap and Metamodel API Affects Versions: 1.0.1.Final Reporter: David Allen Assignee: David Allen Fix For: 1.1.0.Beta2 When external API frameworks are used in conjunction with a Weld deployment, the class hierarchies are redundantly reflected causing an abundance of collections of redundant methods and members to be created. As a simple example, consider the Struts framework. It has only a few basic classes from which many application classes extend. While the application classes may themselves have few methods or members, the base classes can have many, which in this case are duplicated for each application class.
