Re: [sca-j] @Reference annotation on setter method parameter or the methoditself?

[C Vamsi <vamsic007@in.ibm.com>]

Hi Simon,

Thank you for pointing to JAVA-33.  I failed to locate that issue since
"Java Common Annotations and APIs specification" is not marked as the
component affected by this issue.  I don't think JAVA-33 is resolved yet as
I notice that the text in section 2.1.4 of v1.1 draft does not reflect the
resolution and even the status at http://www.osoa.org/jira/browse/JAVA-33
is still shown as "New".  Though the current proposal for JAVA-33 changes
"setter method parameter" to "setter method", it is not the setter method
but the parameter to the setter method that is typed by the service
interface.  I am alright if my proposed resolution gets considered under
JAVA-33 itself.

Vamsi,
This appears to be a duplicate of JAVA-33. �Were you intending to reopen
that issue (which would require a 2/3 majority), or are you OK with the
change made to this text by the resolution to JAVA-33?

DESCRIPTION:
Java Common Annotations and APIs Specification v1.00 - Sec 1.2.2 - Lines
245 to 246:
245 Accessing a service using reference injection is done by defining a
field, a setter method parameter, or a
246 constructor parameter typed by the service interface and annotated with
an @Reference annotation.

From the above it could be interpreted that the parameter to the setter
method can be annotated with @Reference whereas section 1.8.14 does not
talk about or give an example where a parameter to the setter method is
annotated with @Reference, but mentions that the setter method itself (not
the input parameter) should be annotated with @Reference.

PROPOSAL: Change lines 245 and 246 to read the following:
Accessing a service using reference injection is done by defining a field,
a setter method with input parameter typed by the service interface, or a
constructor parameter typed by the service interface and annotated with an
@Reference annotation.
