             Summary: Consider adding ObserverMethod.notify() method which also accepts EventMetadata
                 Key: CDI-592
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-592
             Project: CDI Specification Issues
          Issue Type: Feature Request
          Components: Events
            Reporter: Martin Kouba
             Fix For: 2.0 (discussion)


{code:java}
// Make the original method also default so that new impls don't need to implement two methods
default void notify(T event) {
  // No-op 
}
// The container should always call this method...
default void notify(T event, EventMetadata metadata) {
  notify(event);
}
{code}
This should not break existing implementations. The truth is a custom impl will not be forced to implement any {{notify()}} method. But I think the benefits are worth it.
