Vamsi,
This appears to be a duplicate of JAVA-33.
 Were you intending to reopen that issue (which would require a 2/3
majority), or are you OK with the change made to this text by the resolution
to JAVA-33?

Subject	[sca-j] @Reference annotation on setter method parameter or the method itself?

DESCRIPTION:
Java Common Annotations and APIs Specification v1.00 - Sec 1.2.2 - Lines
245 to 246:
245 Accessing a service using reference injection is done by defining a
field, a setter method parameter, or a
246 constructor parameter typed by the service interface and annotated
with
an @Reference annotation.

From the above it could be interpreted that the parameter to the setter
method can be annotated with @Reference whereas section 1.8.14 does not
talk about or give an example where a parameter to the setter method is
annotated with @Reference, but mentions that the setter method itself (not
the input parameter) should be annotated with @Reference.

PROPOSAL: Change lines 245 and 246 to read the following:
Accessing a service using reference injection is done by defining a field,
a setter method with input parameter typed by the service interface, or
a
constructor parameter typed by the service interface and annotated with
an
@Reference annotation.
