[cdi-dev] [JBoss JIRA] (CDI-304) Clarify Producers for injection into generic types

--------------------------------------------------------------

5.2.4. "Assignability of raw and parameterized types" now says

{quote}A raw bean type is considered assignable to a parameterized required type if the raw types are identical.{quote}

8.3.1. "Assignability of raw and parameterized types for delegate injection points" says:

{quote}A raw bean type is considered assignable to a parameterized delegate type if the raw types are identical *and all type parameters of the delegate type are either unbounded type variables or java.lang.Object.*{quote}

Wouldn't it make sense to make these two assertions coherent?

Note that the fact that the spec mentions this specifically in 8.3.1 indicates that the current wording of 5.2.4 (changed as a result of this issue) had not been originally intended in CDI 1.0!

> There is a discussion over in DeltaSpike whether an injection point

> @Inject
> private JsfMessage<SomeMessageClass>;
> {code}
> with a producer method
> {code}
> @Produces @Dependent
> JsfMessage createMessage(InjectionPoint ip)
> {code}
> 5.2 imo only defines the other way around. Having a raw type at the injection point and a parameterized producer method.
> We should define how this is intended to work. 
> Please note that the producer above works in all existing containers so far but not in Weld2-beta1.
