    Description

      It would be useful if Java enums were included in the CDI annotation scan.

      A use case for this is found in the Seam Faces project, where we would like to use annotations on enums for configuration purposes. The annotation would look like:

      @ViewConfig
      public enum Pages {
      ...
      }

      It is my understanding that the current CDI specification (1.0) does not require scanning of the enum and will not pick up the @ViewConfig annotation.
