Make special note in the spec about @Named beans (via a stereotype) cannot be selected with Instance.select() ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: CDI-34 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-34 Project: CDI Specification Issues Issue Type: Feature Request Reporter: Shane Bryzak Priority: Minor For example, say we have the following bean: public @Model class Foo implements IFoo { } And we have the following injection point within another bean: @Inject Instance<Foo> fooInstance; It is not possible to select Foo via name using the Instance: // This results in an UnsatisfiedDependencyException Foo foo = fooInstance.select(new NamedLiteral("foo")).get(); Instead, Foo must be annotated directly with the @Named annotation itself: /* * This Foo can be selected by name */ public @Named @RequestScoped Foo implements IFoo { } This special case might be worthwhile mentioning in the next revision of the spec. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
