> introspection
>
> TARGET: POJO Component Implementation
>
> DESCRIPTION: Catch 22 when trying to prevent property introspection
>
> Section 8.2 of JavaCI states that public and protected fields of
> simple types such as "int" are automatically introspected as
> SCA properties if the implementation class does not contain any
> @Reference or @Property annotations.
>
> This rule means that an implementation class without any SCA
properties
> or references will accidentally trigger the default introspection
> algorithm, with the result that any public or protected "int" fields
> will be incorrectly introspected as SCA properties (catch 22).
Because
> there are no intended SCA properties or references, the author of the
> class cannot add any @Property or @Reference annotations to the class
> and is therefore unable to prevent the default introspection algorithm
> from being used.
>
> PROPOSAL:
>
> Change the spec to say that the algorithm in section 8.2 only
> applies if the implementation class has no @Service, @Property, or
> @Reference annotations. This allows the default introspection
> algorithm to be disabled by adding an explicit @Service annotation.
