[cdi-dev] [JBoss JIRA] (CDI-45) Optional Injection Points

[Romain Manni-Bucau (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-45?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12997574#comment-12997574 ] 

Romain Manni-Bucau commented on CDI-45:
---------------------------------------

Well Instance almost matches this need. Only known issue it has is the fact it doesn't only have isSatisfied(), get() methods so resolution is almost everytimes done lazily which is/can be slow compared to normal injection. Having SingletonInstance with only these methods (and Instance inheriting from it) could solve it but not sure this change can be introduced.

> There are occoasions where it may be useful for some injection points to be optional, e.g.
> @Inject
> @Optional 
> MyBean bean; 
> This would behave the same as a normal injection point, however it will not cause the deployment to fail if it is not satisified.
