[cdi-dev] [JBoss JIRA] (CDI-18) Global enablement of interceptors, decorators and alternatives

[Mark Struberg (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-18?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12736817#comment-12736817 ] 

Mark Struberg commented on CDI-18:
----------------------------------

PS: 

> 2.) In the legacy mode (enablement for bean archive)

There should be no legacy mode at all. This was just horribly broken and unmaintainable. I see no whatever sense in keeping this. And the argument with backward compatibility is moot as no user ever used that. Even JBossAS nor GlassFish are NOT following the strict CDI-1.1 rules right now because they are unusable!

> Currently the spec defines that <interceptors>, <decorators> and <alternatives> affect only the Bean Archives where they are configured in (via beans.xml). 
> Thus if you e.g. enable an Alternative in a WEB-INF/beans.xml, it does NOT count for the jars in it's WEB-INF/lib folder!
> This is pretty unhandy because you would need to repackage all your jars in your WEB-INF/lib folder and add/expand the <alternatives> sections in their beans.xml.
> Needless to say that this is not only hard to do in a company build but is also impossibly to handle at deploy time in an OSGi environment!
