Hi JWells,
Thanks your reply very much!

I see.
> What is the use case for which you need a Decorator?
Currently, I myself am trying to bring stopped Glassfish PaaS back into
current gf trunk. And in the stopped Glassfish PaaS, there is a class
called "org.glassfish.virtualization.config.ServerPoolConfig" in
iaas-mgmt/virt-api module and @Decorate annotates this class as following:
...
@Decorate(targetType = Domain.class, methodName = "getExtensions", with
= Create.class )
public interface ServerPoolConfig extends ConfigBeanProxy {
...
}
Because current gf uses the newest HK2, in order to build
iaas-mgmt/virt-api module, I must replace @Decorate with some new HK2
API or use hk2-deprecated-XXX.jar.
This is a true case.
Thanks
