javax.enterprise.inject.spi
Interface IdentifiedAnnotatedType<X>

Type Parameters:

X - the type

All Superinterfaces:

Annotated, AnnotatedType<X>

public interface IdentifiedAnnotatedType<X>
extends AnnotatedType<X>

IdentifiedAnnotatedType allows multiple annotated types, based on the same underlying type, to be defined. If an AnnotatedType is an instance of IdentifiedAnnotatedType then getID() is used to identify the annotated type to the container, otherwise the fully qualified class name of AnnotatedType.getJavaClass() is used to identify the type. AnnotatedTypes discovered by the container use the fully qualified class name of AnnotatedType.getJavaClass() to identify the type.
