Description viggonavarsete 2011-02-19 08:10:24 UTC

When generating Web Application from Java Web->Web Application, the user is able to select an option "Enable Contexts and Dependency Injection". This will generate the beans.xml in WEB-INF. A similar feature should be added when generatin web applications from Maven to align the features in the IDE.

Comment 1 viggonavarsete 2011-02-19 08:45:57 UTC

Firstly I thought this was only for Web applications, but actually I think this should go for all projects wanting to take advantage of CDI. So, all Maven generated projects having the option of choosing Java EE 6 should also have an option to enable CDI (Contexts and Dependency Injection). This should generate a beans.xml in WEB-INF. The presence of a beans.xml file signals that the module contains CDI managed beans, so the classes on the path are scanned for CDI annotations. In a CDI module, all beans are registered with Weld, and the @Named annotation is used to match beans to injection points.
