Emily Jiang commented on CDI-527:
---------------------------------

Option A is easy but it does not help the customers with legacy applications. It is not their fault in the first place. The JDK change is beyond their control. If we want to make CDI popular, we should help the customers who are stuck if they are unable to update their legacy applications. 

Option D: Support proxy on all java.x or javax... classes. Since the system property does not sell well, how about introduce a method setAllowProxyingOnUnProxyable(boolean allowProxying) on CDI.java? If not set, false is the default.

> Currently we explicitly disallow proxying of classes with non-private final methods. 
> EJB _does_ allow this. And there are a few final methods in the JDK and other libs. E.g. HashMap#initHashSeedAsNeeded. Currently we cannot have a producer method for it.
> We might rethink our decision and allow it. Probably with an own annotation like @AllowProxying which disables this check for certain cases (subclass managed-beans or producers).
