[cdi-dev] [JBoss JIRA] (CDI-169) Remove the 'No type variable in event objects' restriction

[Pete Muir (JIRA)]

     [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-169?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Pete Muir resolved CDI-169.
---------------------------

      Assignee: Pete Muir
    Resolution: Done


This got fixed as part of CDI-256, when we changed it to disallow *unresolvable* type variables. We defined that an unresolvable type variable is one which can't be inferred from the Event injection point.

> CDI 10.1 states:
> An event object is an instance of a concrete Java class with no type variables. ... An event type may not contain a type variable.
> Which seems silly considering the container fires events with a type variable at startup. I can't think of any reason why this should be prohibited.
