> CDI 1.0 section *11.3.1 Obtaining a contextual reference for a bean* states:
> "If the given type is not a bean type of the given bean, an IllegalArgumentException is thrown."
> However no such exception is thrown. Refer to CDI TCK test [1].
> After inspecting the source code I suppose the problem is probably related to following part of *org.jboss.weld.manager.BeanManagerImpl.getReference(Bean<?>, Type, CreationalContext<?>)*:
> {code}
> if (!Reflections.isAssignableFrom(bean.getTypes(), beanType))
> {
>  throw new IllegalArgumentException(SPECIFIED_TYPE_NOT_BEAN_TYPE, beanType, bean );
> }
> {code}
> All beans have the bean type *java.lang.Object* (2.2. Bean types) - since java.lang.Object is assignable from any class *Reflections.isAssignableFrom(bean.getTypes(), beanType)* will always return true.
