[cdi-dev] [JBoss JIRA] (CDI-320) Clarify whether ProcessAnnotatedType should be fired for annotations

[Jozef Hartinger (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-320?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12954677#comment-12954677 ] 

Jozef Hartinger commented on CDI-320:
-------------------------------------

{quote}the third point, which deals with @WithAnnotations doesn't seem to belong to the paragraph, as the paragraph talks about what the container must fire, not about what the observers must handle. The point seems redundant because the set of every Java class, interface or enum discovered fully includes the set of annotated Java classes, interfaces or enums discovered.{quote}

I think you are referring to this part:
{quote}each Java class, interface or enum that must be delivered to a ProcessAnnotatedType observer, where the event parameter
is annotated with @WithAnnotations.{quote}

This is indeed a leftover from pre-final version of CDI 1.1. This feature did not make it into the final version. We should remove this leftover.

> It should be stated clearly whether {{ProcessAnnotatedType}} should be fired for annotations.
> Currently, *11.5.6 ProcessAnnotatedType event* says:
> {quote}
> The container must fire an event, before it processes a type, for each:
> * Java class, interface or enum in a bean archive,
> {quote}
> The word "annotation" has been introduced into the above line and later reverted. 
> {quote}
> * Annotated type added by {{BeforeBeanDiscovery.addAnnotatedType()}},
> {quote}
> The wording used here, however, doesn't exclude the option of the annotated type being an Annotation.
