[cdi-dev] [JBoss JIRA] (CDI-721) configureAnnotatedType vs setAnnotatedType restrition is unecessarily strict

[Mark Struberg (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-721?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13525690#comment-13525690 ] 

Mark Struberg commented on CDI-721:
-----------------------------------

Another observation

> A configurator instance is currently scoped to a container lifecycle observer method invocation 

Can you please point me to the section where you did read this? I'm not able to find it

> and if we change this in CDI 2.x I think we would break backward compatibility.
 
No, we just remove a synthetic restriction. This would be perfectly backward compatible.

> {noformat}
> Any observer of this event is permitted to wrap and/or replace the AnnotatedType by calling either setAnnotatedType() or configureAnnotatedType(). If both methods are called within an observer notification an IllegalStateException is thrown.
> {noformat}
> This rule is way too strict without any real reason.
> Any CDI container must support that both methods are being called on the same event payload anyway. Because we did not forbid that observerMethod1 invokes setAnnotatedType and observerMethod2 uses configureAnnoatedType. And that's good that way, otherwise the pluggability would be lost.
> We should delete this sentence without any substitution.
> The same applies to similar configurator methods like configureBeanAttributes, etc.
