             Summary: Specific Types for functional interfaces with generic types
                 Key: ELY-809
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ELY-809
             Project: WildFly Elytron
          Issue Type: Enhancement
          Components: API / SPI
            Reporter: Darran Lofthouse
            Assignee: Darran Lofthouse
             Fix For: 1.1.0.Beta17


Using MSC and WildFly Core's Capabilities and Requirements support there is a limit as to how far we can go with generic and maintain type safety.

For any type returned by a factory method we should have a type that extends from the functional interface with the geeneric types specified e.g.

{code}
  ProvidersSupplier extends Supplier<Provider[]>
{code}

Code that depends on this can still depend on Supplier<Provider[]>
