Can't use GlobalInterceptor gRPC annotation with interceptor produced by a method

Describe the bug

I have a server interceptor produced by a method:

  @Produces
  public ServerInterceptor serverInterceptor() {
    return new LoggingServerInterceptor();
  }

I want to make it global by putting io.quarkus.grpc.GlobalInterceptor annotation.

I can’t put this annotation on the producer method, because the annotation has @Target({ FIELD, PARAMETER, TYPE }) (not applicable to methods).

And I can’t put this annotation on LoggingServerInterceptor class, because the class does not have any CDI bean annotations on it. Quarkus complains:

2021-11-11 04:23:49,640 ERROR [io.qua.grp.run.GrpcServerRecorder] (main) Unable to start the gRPC server: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Server interceptor class class com.azul.cc.infrastructure.grpc.LoggingServerInterceptor is not a CDI bean. Only CDI beans can be used as gRPC server interceptors. Add one of the scope-defining annotations (@Singleton, @ApplicationScoped, @RequestScoped) on the interceptor class.

Expected behavior

The GlobalInterceptor annotation should support this case as well.

Actual behavior

I understand it’s more convenient in some cases, I’m not closing this issue. What I wanted to say is that, having a work around, and being non-trivial, I don’t consider this a high priority feature request.

I stumbled on this issue and I was wondering, would it be possible to use the Produces annotation at least for service scoped interceptors? It would be nice to reuse existing interceptors without wrapping them in new classes.
