[cdi-dev] [JBoss JIRA] (CDI-110) Provide support for binding an invocation handler to an interface or abstract class

[Romain Manni-Bucau (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-110?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12717983#comment-12717983 ] 

Romain Manni-Bucau commented on CDI-110:
----------------------------------------

In OpenEJB and TomEE we have something pretty close for EJBs (since in CDI world it is done with extensions) and we called the annotation @Proxy(MyInvocationhandler.class)

IMO the annotation name shouldnt be linked to the interface to implement

> The purpose of this feature is to allow interfaces and abstract classes to be automatically implemented by an invocation handler to which all abstract method invocations are delegated. The invocation handler would get "bound" to the type using the same strategy as is used for interceptor binding.
> Binding type:
> {code:java}
> @Target({ METHOD, TYPE })
> @Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)
> @ServiceHandlerBindingType
> public @interface EchoService {}
> {code}
> Invocation handler:
> {code:java}
> @ServiceHandler
> @EchoService
> public class EchoServiceHandler {
>     @AroundInvoke
>     public Object invoke(InvocationContext ctx) {
>         return ctx.getMethod().getName().toString();
>     }
> }
> {code}
> Usage:
> {code:java}
> @EchoService
> public interface HelloWorld {
>    String helloWorld();
> }
> {code}
