Defining a Seam-Interceptors on method-level

[accless]

Hi,

i was able to write a seam interceptor (class-level) for a SLSB. Due to the nature of class-level interceptors, each method invocation of this SLSB will notify the interceptor.

As i am interested only in one specific method-invocation, i changed the Target's seam interface from TYPE to METHOD and annotated the method i am interested in. Unfortunately, the interceptor is never invoked/informed.

Are method seam interceptors not supported or do is my interface wrong ?

Here is the code:

@Target({ElementType.METHOD})
@Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)
@Interceptors({ManufacturerActivationInterceptor.class})
public @interface ManufacturerActivation {

}

Greetings

You must use a class-level interceptor and then you can determine by reflection whether to intercept the method invocation.  This blog posting provides a tutorial on how to do this with Seam.  Hope it helps.
