Martin Kouba commented on CDI-525:
----------------------------------

It seems that OWB follows the current spec wording - see also [WebBeansUtil.getManagedBeanDefaultName()|http://grepcode.com/file/repo1.maven.org/maven2/org.apache.openwebbeans/openwebbeans-impl/1.2.7/org/apache/webbeans/util/WebBeansUtil.java#WebBeansUtil.getManagedBeanDefaultName%28java.lang.String%29]. Given that the change would be backwards incompatible and not all implementations behave in the same way I'm not so sure it's a good idea anymore.

> *3.1.5. Default bean name for a managed bean*:
> {quote}
> The default name for a managed bean is the unqualified class name of the bean class, after converting the first character to lower case.
> {quote}
> As a result, the default name for a bean class {{URLMatcher}} should be {{uRLMatcher}}. On the other hand the JavaBean spec is using different rules when inferring property names, *8.8 Capitalization of inferred names*:
> {quote}
> However to support the occasional use of all upper-case names, we check if the first two characters of the name are both upper case and if so leave it alone.
> {quote}
> I.e. the property name for getter {{getURLMatcher()}} woud be {{URLMatcher}}.
> Note that there is no TCK test for this and so implementations may differ (issue is already filed: CDITCK-473). Weld is using {{java.beans.Introspector.decapitalize()}} and so it follows the JavaBean spec even now. I'm not sure about OpenWebBeans.
