InterceptorInfo (Jakarta Contexts and Dependency Injection API)

All Superinterfaces:

BeanInfo
```
public interface InterceptorInfo
extends BeanInfo
```
Interceptors are managed beans annotated @Interceptor. An interceptor declares a set of interceptor binding annotations, used to associate the interceptor with target beans. It also declares at most one interceptor method for each interception type. Interception types are:
- @AroundInvoke: intercept business method invocations,
- @AroundConstruct: intercept constructor invocations,
- @PostConstruct: called after the container creates the target instance and completes dependency injection,
- @PreDestroy: called before the container destroys the target instance.
Finally, an interceptor also needs to declare a @Priority to become enabled.
Note that this description applies to CDI Lite. There are more ways to declare an interceptor, but those are only present in CDI Full.
Since:

4.0
