TARGET: Java Common Annotations and APIs specification
Java Component Implementation Specification
Section titled: "Local and Remotable Services"
DESCRIPTION:
Currently, this section states the following:
If an implementation class has implemented interfaces that are not decorated with an @Remotable annotation, the class is considered to implement a single local service whose type is defined by the class.
This is unfortunate, since the extremely common pattern of:
class FooImpl implements Foo {}
Will result in a component that offers a service whose type is FooImpl (assuming that Foo hasn't been marked as @Remotable).
It should be possible for this pattern to result in a service whose type is the Foo interface.
PROPOSAL:
Introduce a new interface annotation called @Local. If a component implementation implements an interface that has been marked as @Local, then the component type will include a service whose type is that interface.
