Weld claims to be able to inject Principal, but throws RuntimeException("not implemented") at runtime
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: AS7-1297
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-1297
             Project: Application Server 7
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: CDI / Weld, Security
    Affects Versions: 7.0.0.Final, 7.1.0.Alpha1
         Environment: Windows 7 x64, JDK 6 and 7 both tested. JBoss AS 7.0.0 release, and Jboss AS 7.1.0.Alpha1 nightly build 2011-07-15.
            Reporter: Craig Ringer
            Assignee: Stuart Douglas


In JBoss AS 7, Weld claims to be able to inject instances of  java.security.Principal. CDI archives that try to inject it do not fail at deployment time with unsatisfied dependencies. Instead, they fail later, at runtime, when injection is attempted. At this point a runtime exception indicating that principal injection isn't supported is thrown.

This prevents user code, or external frameworks like Seam 3 Security, from providing their own producers for javax.security.Principal without requiring a qualifier to be used. 

If JBoss AS 7's weld integration doesn't support container managed security yet (perhaps because container managed security is  not supported in JBoss AS 7 at all yet?) then it should not offer an injection point for the security principal.

Backtrace when calling toString() on an injected proxy for a Principal:
