Class AlternativesManager

  • public class AlternativesManager
extends Object
    This class has 2 responsibilities. 1.) to collect information about configured @Alternatives at boot time 2.) answer if a class is an enabled Alternative. This is needed for BeanManagerImpl.resolve(java.util.Set) The boot order for 1.) is to first register all the alternatives and stereotypes from the XML. After that the AnnotatedType scanning is performed and all @Alternatives with @Priority get added as well. We will also add classes which have an Alternative stereotype. After the AnnotatedTypes got scanned we have to fire the AfterTypeDiscovery event with the collected effective alternative classes sorted by their priority. Any extension can re-order the alternatives which then form the base of the resolve() handling at runtime.
