Re: [cdi-dev] Bean/interceptor clarification question

[Ladislav Thon <lthon@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Actually I'm not following the terminology correctly in my previous email. I meant:

A target class may declare an interceptor method, but that doesn't make the target class an interceptor class.

But the distinction between an interceptor and an interceptor class is usually obvious from the context, so that shouldn't be a problem I hope :-)

The terminology around interceptors may sometimes be a little fuzzy, due to the existence of a separate Interceptors specification, but if you follow the terminology definitions there https://jakarta.ee/specifications/interceptors/2.0/interceptors-spec-2.0.html#terminology, the answer is _no_. A target class may declare an interceptor method, but that doesn't make the target class an interceptor.

Is a bean class with an @AroundInvoke method an interceptor class (in CDI Full of course)?

For example:

// Assume Bean is discovered or added programmatically, i.e. it is a valid CDI bean.

// Is it also an interceptor?

public class Bean {

  public void businessMethod() {

    // do something

  }

  @AroundInvoke

  Object aroundInvokeMethod(InvocationContext ic) throws Exception {

    return ic.proceed();

  }

}

Best,

Laird
