[cdi-dev] RequestScoped and Injection Points

[Pete Muir]

No.

Continuing my example, I introduce some new annotation (not a qualifier):

@Retention(RUNTIME)
@interface Foo {

   String bar();

}

And use it:

@RequestScoped
class A {

 /// Illegal
 @Inject InjectionPoint ip;

}

class B {

@Inject @Bar("baz") A a;

}

class C {

@Inject @Bar("qux") A a;

}

And then let's say we have:

@RequestScoped
class D {

@Inject C c;
@Inject B b;

}

The *same* instance of A will be injected into B & C when D is accessed. The injection points allow access to the Annotated, which reflects two different injection points.

Not gonna work ;-)

However, CDI disallows this since the producer methods used to create them would not have access to the injection point.  If a second injection point is found, CDI should return the same instance.
