[cdi-dev] [JBoss JIRA] (CDI-267) Consider annotating built in scopes with @Scope

[Martin Kouba (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-267?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12730745#comment-12730745 ] 

Martin Kouba commented on CDI-267:
----------------------------------

Well, I don't like this idea. 

Firstly it would be really confusing, because the spec states, 6.3. "Normal scopes and pseudo-scopes":
{quote}
All pseudo-scopes must be explicitly declared @Scope, to indicate to the container that no client proxy is required.
{quote}
And @NormalScoped javadoc says:
{quote}
@Scope is used to declare pseudo-scopes.
{quote}

Secondly I don't think it makes sense to reuse CDI API in other DI for Java implementations.

> The @Inject spec defines the @Singleton annotation that can be used in @Inject impls or CDI . The annotations defined in CDI can only be used in CDI and could not be reused with @Inject impl.
> If technically (or per the spec) it is possible to annotate the CDI annotations with @Scope (in addition of @NormalScope) then those annotations could be reused in @Inject implemetentation, removing the need for proprietary annotations that do the same (com.google.inject.servlet.RequestScoped for example).
