[cdi-dev] Lifecycle Callback Interceptor and @Target "METHOD"

[Pete Muir]

Understood, but it seems sensible to allow, and I can't find anything prohibiting it.

This statement seems to be OK but I believe this doesn't mean that my interceptor binding annotation may not specify ElementType.METHOD.

Since I use this interceptor at class AND method level it declares @Target({ElementType.METHOD, ElementType.TYPE}). The error message seems to indicate that I can not have a lifecycle callback interceptor with @Target METHOD:
