Proper annotation for injecting cache with CDI?

[Quix0r]

Hi,

I currently use fish.payara.cdi.jsr107.impl.NamedCache for naming my CDI-injected cache. Excerpt from my code (which will be GNU AGPLv3 but that is not relevant here):

	/**
	 * Cached products
	 */
	@Inject
	@NamedCache (cacheName = "productCache")
	private Cache<Long, Product> productCache;

By Product is a POJI for an entity and Long is the entity's persisted primary key (aka. "insert-id").

This currently works flawless, except that I have a warning in my IDE: "Unsatisfied dependency: no bean matches the injection point". this.productCache is immediately available, even in a @PostConstruct annotated method.

As I said, it works (not flawless due to the warning) but it feels not right as it makes my project depending on a specific release of Payara (they are around here, too) as the needed payara-api.jar seem to be updated (e.g. it just happened from 173 to 174 build) sometimes and then I need to update it in my project, too. Plus I need to ask my users to have that specific build.

I would love to see this annotation being fixed (by Payara, of course) and then included into JS107 specs.

So how is it done?
