[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBIDE-4144) Seam JavaScanner fails on annotation types

[Viacheslav Kabanovich (JIRA)]

    [ https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBIDE-4144?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12461206#action_12461206 ] 

Viacheslav Kabanovich commented on JBIDE-4144:
----------------------------------------------

Declaration of @Name is annotated by @Target(ElementType.TYPE). I would assume that this should narrow its usage to classes, but compiler does not report problems if I add it to annotation types and enums.
Also, compiler allows the following construction

@Name("comp1")
public @interface S {

	@Name("comp2")
	public static class V {
		
	}
}

Since internal class  is certainly good to be a Seam component, I think we need to parse and collect everything.
If "comp1" in my example is not legal and will not work at Seam runtime, it is up to Seam validator to report the problem.
