[cdi-dev] Tests on observer resolution

[Antoine Sabot-Durand]

Hi all


Yesterday when reviewing Martin Pull Request [1] regarding CDI 422 [2], we started a discussion about Observer Resolution about a possible issue in the spec. I will not repeat what was said on the IRC, if you’re interested you can check the transcript [3] from 09:43.

To check if this was an issue or not I did some test this morning with different implementations. You can grab the tests on Github [4]

Good news : OWB and Weld (1.x and 2.x) have the same behavior : the one describe in the current spec, so there are no issue on this point.
The only strange thing for me is that @Any seems totally useless regarding events firing

If you write : 
@Inject Event<Payload> payLoadEvent;
or
@Inject @Any Event<Payload> payLoadEvent;

You’ll always be allowed call payLoadEvent.select(new QualifierLiteral()) in both case...

Perhaps this point can be discussed to see if we remove @Any from the examples in the spec or if we enforce its usage in the specification…

Antoine
