[cdi-dev] RequestScoped and Injection Points

[Pete Muir]

The only way to register a bean for every single variant of a qualifier would be to scan injection points. 

I'm only somewhat aware of what exactly you are doing, but really the issue is that CDI is not designed to be used in the way you are trying, which is why you hit this impedance mismatch.

Assuming that I want it to be taken into account when resolving injection points, do I need to gather metadata around injection points and dynamically build producer method impl's that are generated at deployment type via an extension that did something like:

Not sure why you need to do this?

You can only register beans at runtime using CDI 1.0, no producers, managed beans, etc.
