[jbossseam-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBSEAM-1127) Allow inspection of all installed components

    [ http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBSEAM-1127?page=comments#action_12361580 ] 

Mike Quilleash commented on JBSEAM-1127:
----------------------------------------

I would argue this is a bad way to get this information.

1) It's very slow, the scanner will go through all the jar files to build the component list.
2) It returns Classes rather than Component, Component has more info potentially.
3) Because it returns classes there is no way to distinguish between multiple instances of a class.  e.g.  MangedHibernateSession does not have a @Name as it is normally configured via components.xml.
4) It will not pick up components installed via components.xml at all as they do not have @Name annotations.
