Interface BeforeBeanDiscovery


  • public interface BeforeBeanDiscovery

    This event type is thrown by the container before the bean discovery process begins. If any observer method of the BeforeBeanDiscovery event throws an exception, the exception is treated as a definition error by the container.

      • addQualifier

        void addQualifier​(java.lang.Class<? extends java.lang.annotation.Annotation> qualifier)

        Declares an annotation type as a Qualifier qualifier type.

        This is only required if you wish to make an annotation a qualifier without adding Qualifier to it.

        Parameters:
        qualifier - The annotation to treat as a qualifier
        Throws:
        java.lang.IllegalStateException - if called outside of the observer method invocation
      • addQualifier

        void addQualifier​(AnnotatedType<? extends java.lang.annotation.Annotation> qualifier)

        Declares an annotation type as a Qualifier qualifier type.

        This is only required if you wish to make an annotation a qualifier without adding Qualifier to it.

        Parameters:
        qualifier - The annotation to treat as a qualifier
        Throws:
        java.lang.IllegalStateException - if called outside of the observer method invocation
        Since:
        1.1
      • addScope

        void addScope​(java.lang.Class<? extends java.lang.annotation.Annotation> scopeType,
                      boolean normal,
                      boolean passivating)

        Declares an annotation type as a scope type.

        This is only required if you wish to make an annotation a scope type without adding the NormalScope or Scope annotations to it. You can also use this method to override an existing normal scope definition.

        Parameters:
        scopeType - The annotation type to treat as a scope type
        normal - Indicates if the scope is normal
        passivating - Indicates if the scope is passivation capable
        Throws:
        java.lang.IllegalStateException - if called outside of the observer method invocation

      • addStereotype

        void addStereotype​(java.lang.Class<? extends java.lang.annotation.Annotation> stereotype,
                           java.lang.annotation.Annotation... stereotypeDef)

        Declares an annotation type as a stereotype, and specifies its meta-annotations.

        This is only required if you wish to make an annotation a stereotype without adding Stereotype to it. You can also use this method to override an existing stereotype definition.

        Parameters:
        stereotype - The annotation type to treat as a stereotype
        stereotypeDef - An optional list of annotations defining the stereotype
        Throws:
        java.lang.IllegalStateException - if called outside of the observer method invocation
      • addInterceptorBinding

        void addInterceptorBinding​(AnnotatedType<? extends java.lang.annotation.Annotation> bindingType)

        Declares an annotation type as an interceptor binding type.

        This is only required if you wish to make an annotation an interceptor binding type without adding InterceptorBinding to it.

        Parameters:
        bindingType - The annotation type to treat as an interceptor binding type
        Throws:
        java.lang.IllegalStateException - if called outside of the observer method invocation
      • addInterceptorBinding

        void addInterceptorBinding​(java.lang.Class<? extends java.lang.annotation.Annotation> bindingType,
                                   java.lang.annotation.Annotation... bindingTypeDef)

        Declares an annotation type as an interceptor binding type, and specifies its meta-annotations.

        This is only required if you wish to make an annotation an interceptor binding type without adding InterceptorBinding to it.

        Parameters:
        bindingType - The annotation type to treat as an interceptor binding type
        bindingTypeDef - An optional list of annotations defining the interceptor
        Throws:
        java.lang.IllegalStateException - if called outside of the observer method invocation
        Since:
        1.1
      • addAnnotatedType

        void addAnnotatedType​(AnnotatedType<?> type)

        Adds a given AnnotatedType to the set of types which will be scanned during bean discovery.

        This method is deprecated from CDI 1.1 and addAnnotatedType(AnnotatedType, String) should be used instead.

        Parameters:
        type - The AnnotatedType to add for later scanning
        Throws:
        java.lang.IllegalStateException - if called outside of the observer method invocation
      • addAnnotatedType

        void addAnnotatedType​(AnnotatedType<?> type,
                              java.lang.String id)

        Adds a given AnnotatedType to the set of types which will be scanned during bean discovery.

        Thanks to the id parameter, this method allows multiple annotated types, based on the same underlying type, to be defined. AnnotatedTypes discovered by the container use the fully qualified class name of AnnotatedType.getJavaClass() to identify the type.

        AfterBeanDiscovery.getAnnotatedType(Class, String) and AfterBeanDiscovery.getAnnotatedTypes(Class) allows annotated types to be obtained by identifier.

        Parameters:
        type - The AnnotatedType to add for later scanning
        id - the identifier used to distinguish this AnnotatedType from an other one based on the same underlying type
        Throws:
        java.lang.IllegalStateException - if called outside of the observer method invocation
        Since:
        1.1
      • configureQualifier

        <T extends java.lang.annotation.Annotation> AnnotatedTypeConfigurator<T> configureQualifier​(java.lang.Class<T> qualifier)

        Obtains a new AnnotatedTypeConfigurator to configure a new AnnotatedType and declares it as a Qualifier qualifier type.

        This is only required if you wish to make an annotation a qualifier without adding Qualifier to it and need to easily add other annotations (like Nonbinding on its members.

        Parameters:
        qualifier - The annotation class used to initialized the configurator
        Returns:
        a non reusable AnnotatedTypeConfigurator to configure the qualifier
        Throws:
        java.lang.IllegalStateException - if called outside of the observer method invocation
        Since:
        2.0
      • configureInterceptorBinding

        <T extends java.lang.annotation.Annotation> AnnotatedTypeConfigurator<T> configureInterceptorBinding​(java.lang.Class<T> bindingType)

        Obtains a new AnnotatedTypeConfigurator to configure a new AnnotatedType and declares it as an interceptor binding type.

        This is only required if you wish to make an annotation an interceptor binding type without adding InterceptorBinding to it and need to easily add other annotations (like Nonbinding on its members.

        Parameters:
        bindingType - The annotation class used to initialized the configurator
        Returns:
        a non reusable AnnotatedTypeConfigurator to configure the interceptor binding
        Throws:
        java.lang.IllegalStateException - if called outside of the observer method invocation
