-----------------------------------
Summary: ensure that repeatable annotations are processed in
definition order
Key: ARIES-2059
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARIES-2059
Project: Aries
Issue Type: Bug
Components: CDI
Reporter: Raymond Augé
Assignee: Raymond Augé
Fix For: cdi-1.1.4
When a repeatable annotation is defined on a class, the API
{{javax.enterprise.inject.spi.Annotated}} can be misleading because {{<T
extends Annotation> Set<T> getAnnotations(Class<T> annotationType);}} returns a
Set.
This means that implementations are free to return annotations not in
definition order.
Aries CDI mistakenly used this API to retrieve {{@PID}} annotations (which are
repeatable.)
The work around is pretty simple, when needing to retrieve repeatable
annotations in definition order pass the container annotationType (all
repeatable annotations have a container annotation type) to the method instead,
in this case {{getAnnotations(PIDs.class)}} and then get the {{@PIDs.value()}}
array which contains the {{@PID}} annotations in definition order.
