[cdi-dev] [JBoss JIRA] (CDI-132) Clarify which initial info AnnotatedType should contain

[Mark Struberg (Commented) (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-132?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12654982#comment-12654982 ] 

Mark Struberg commented on CDI-132:
-----------------------------------

things get more complicated. 

I think the current AnnotatedType maintains no 'relation' to it's parent class. Instead it contains the 'effective' model only. But this is imo not enough. It also doesn't say anything about modifiers public/protected/private.

What should the AnnotatedType of the following class provide?:

@ApplicationScoped
public class MyBaseSvc {
  private @Inject EntityManager;
  ...
  
}

@ApplicationScoped
public class DongService extends MyBaseSvc {
  ...
}

> The spec is not exactly clear about the initial content of AnnotatedType.
> When initially building the AnnotatedType (e.g. before handing it over to the Extensions) we need to pre-fill them with the info from the annotations from the classes.
> Should this AnnotatedType:
> 1.) contain no annotations from superclasses?
> 2.) contain all annotations from superclasses?
> 3.) contain @Inherited annotations from superclasses?
> I think the other questions already got cleared up in CDI-70:
> Should AnnotatedType contain derived public? protected? private? methods/fields from a superclass?
> Imo it should contain all information which would be available by manually parsing any annotations. In other words: it should be possible to completely modify or emulate annotations of a parsed type.
