 * New bean creation and injection uses the {@literal @New} annotation as the

 * The {@literal @New} annotation injects a new instance of a bean to
 * the injection
 * point.  The configuration for the {@literal @New} instance is separate
 * from any
 * simple bean configuration.
 *
 * <ul>
 * <li>Initializer methods and injected fields are defined by annotations.
 * <li>Interceptor bindings are defined by annotations.
 * <li>Scope is {@link javax.enterprise.context.Dependent @Dependent}
 * <li>Deployment type is  {@link javax.enterprise.context.Standard @Standard}
 * <li>The binding is {@literal @New}
 * <li>No bean {@link javax.annotation.Named @Named}
