Make it possible to obtain the Java Reflection object representing the parameter. This is in line with
AnnotatedField.getJavaMember()
AnnotatedMethod.getJavaMember()
AnnotatedConstructor.getJavaMember()
Can be implemented as a default method such as:
default Parameter getJavaParameter() { Member member = getDeclaringCallable().getJavaMember(); if (!(member instanceof Executable)) { throw new IllegalStateException("Parameter does not belong to an executable " + member); } Executable executable = (Executable) member; return executable.getParameters()[getPosition()]; }
[CDI-481] Introduce AnnotatedParameter.getJavaParameter()
Yep. If you think to an extension allowing kind of dynamic calls it can use then names instead of index or type (which are not enough). For instance:
@PreSecurity("authenticator.login(username, password)
public Data getSensitiveData() {
// ...
}
// ...
@Named
public class Authenticator {
public boolean login(@Parameter("username") String user, @Parameter("password") String pwd) {
return true;
}
}

}
Oh, I see.
The named would be available here as AnnotatedParameter.getJavaParameter().getName()

this way extensions can use parameters name which can be useful for extension configuration and match it with something better/more expressive than index.

Sorry, I don't follow. Please elaborate.
