Peter Rader updated ARIES-2027:
-------------------------------
    Description: 
TL;DR

CDI in Aries allowes only one-bean-injection. CDI in Aries should allow 
flexible-bean-amount-injection using java.util.Set.

 

Long:

Since karaf show the [example of CDI using 
Aries|https://github.com/apache/karaf/blob/29d02c282acb370cca18535ad9a6bbbb0823b1de/examples/karaf-cdi-example/karaf-cdi-example-consumer/src/main/java/org/apache/karaf/examples/cdi/consumer/MyConsumerBean.java#L31]
 there is a feature missing that is implemented in other CDI containers like 
SpringCDI: The possibility of inject multiple beans into one field.

Currently the field in the example is written like this:
{code:java}
    @Reference
    @Inject
    private MyServiceBean service;
{code}
Unfortunately the MyServiceBean is a concretation and a dependency. Since the 
dependency-inversion-principle (DIP) points out: "Entities must depend on 
abstractions, not on concretions.". This example is concrete-dependency because:
 # We are strict to use only-one implementation of a bean.
 # It is not possible to have no implementation (optional) of the bean.

h3. Why we should not allow other collection-types than Set?

We have other candidates for collection types.
 # Arrays
 They are impractical because we can not use the keyword final as the 
access-modifiers of the instances because final on a array is only finalizing 
the size of the array. You could modify the array using java-code what is error 
prone.
 # java.util.List
 They are impractical because a List might contain the same instance multiple 
times what allowes a unexpected ambiguity. Since the CDI-Container is the only 
authority who creates the instances, we can eliminate this unexpected ambiguity.
 # javax.swing.TreeNode
 Its not part of the core-jdk, it might require Compact-Profiles.

By the way: Latter a Springs Ordered-pendant is requested to order the 
set-elements, but using org.ietf.jgss.Oid instead of a number.
