public interface FallbackHandler<T>
The handler instance used by the container to service a fallback invocation is a non-contextual
instance created using the CDI SPI. The instance exists to service a single invocation only.
The type parameter of the handler instance must be assignable to the return type of the method,
where the
Fallback
is specified. The container must ensure this type safety.
Otherwise, IllegalArgumentException
should be thrown.
