[cdi-dev] [JBoss JIRA] (CDI-276) Clarify that scope annotations shouldn't be used at injection points

[Pete Muir (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-276?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12924125#comment-12924125 ] 

Pete Muir commented on CDI-276:
-------------------------------

Java EE specifications rarely contain as many error conditions as CDI, nor do they specify what happens in these situations as much as CDI does.

So we could discuss with the EG introducing this warning requirement, but it's diverging a lot from other specs. Also, it would be very hard to test that it actually happens AFAICT.

> It should be clarified that this has no effect. Could even throw a validation exception at deployment.
