[cdi-dev] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (CDI-4) Need a way to provide ordering for Event observers (@Observes)

[John Ament (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-4?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12600515#comment-12600515 ] 

John Ament commented on CDI-4:
------------------------------

One of the things Pete and I spoke about was observer resolution with multiple qualifiers.  I believe the 1.0 spec has an issue with terminology (another inconsistency in it).  I would recommend against a solution to this that relied on the idea of multiple qualifiers resolving to similar observers.

> Understandably, this is somewhat counter-intuitive to the general concept of observing an event, but there is going to be need for this in an upcoming JBoss project. While it can be done manually, it might be nice to have a built-in API.
