Arjan t commented on CDI-579:
-----------------------------

Was thinking about the following:

Mojarra is normally a container jar. Since it uses CDI there's a CDI extension. Since container jars are not automatically scanned, annotated classes can be added via {{BeforeBeanDiscovery.addAnnotatedType}}.

But Mojarra can also be used from an application archive and put into WEB-INF/lib.

Now it helps that it's not an implicit bean archive, otherwise the same class would be added twice; by the extension and via the scanning process. Probably it would be better to have a beans.xml file with bean-discovery-mode of none, but perhaps this was the use case for the "Extension disqualifies a jar as 'implicit bean archive'" was added?

> The bean-discovery-wording is a bit odd. 
> This has been in since CDI-1.1
> {code}
> An archive which:
> • contains a beans.xml file with the bean-discovery-mode of none, or,
> • contains an extension and no beans.xml file is not a bean archive.
> is not a bean archive.
> {code}
> That means even if you have an @ApplicationScoped MyService class in a jar which has a single CDI Extension then this MyServices will *not* get picked up as CDI bean? At least according to this wording?
> Feels mega-weird to me and might conflict with the implicit beans archive definition a few lines below.
> I'm pretty sure in OWB we will pick those beans up. How does Weld behave?
