Decorators and decorated classes are in different bean archives

My ear app which is running on JBoss AS 7.1.0.Final has two jars:

  • lib/one.jar

  • lib/two.jar

Both flags are CDI bean archives.

two.jar

depends on one.jar

.

A class decorated with style is in one.jar

.

The decorator class is in two.jar

If decorators are declared in beans.xml

two.jar

, they are not included. Does this work as expected?

Since it is one.jar

developed independently of two.jar

and has no dependency on two.jar

, I would expect decorators to be declared (included) in the archive where the decorator classes are stored.

How can one include the decorator class without modifying the decorated class archive?

According to the spec, yes, this is the expected behavior. CDI 1.1 hopes to make this easier, or at least a little clever. For any interceptor, decorator or alternative that you want to use, it must be included (beans.xml) in the archive you want to use.
