Subject: Re: [sca-j] Why is @Property.required attribute MUST be true forconstructor parameter?

My understanding is that @required=true means
the property MUST be set with a value which can be either configured at
the component level or inherited from the componentType.
For example, if we have a constructor as
follows:
public MyServiceImpl(@Property(name="myProp")
String myProp) {
...
}
The injection for "myProp" is required
no matter what value it is set.
Thanks,
Raymond

sca-javacaa-1.1-spec-cd02-rev2.doc:
Sec 9.15 @Property
Lines 1622-1623:
required (optional) – specifies whether injection is required, defaults
to
true. For a constructor parameter annotation, this attribute MUST have
the
value true.
Q: Why is, "For a constructor parameter annotation, this attribute
MUST
have the value true." required?
The componentType can define a default value for the property. In this
case, even if a property is not specified in the component definition,
the
runtime will still have a value to pass as an argument to the constructor.
