----------------------------------------
Summary: Implement portable extensions that install custom beans
when not running inside a WAR file.
Key: DELTASPIKE-472
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DELTASPIKE-472
Project: DeltaSpike
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Core
Reporter: John D. Ament
Assignee: John D. Ament
Fix For: 0.6
In many cases, when you deploy with CDI you're using a self contained WAR that
has everything in it. However, in certain deployment models you can reference
external classpath entries that could be available to you, but not scanned
based on CDI scanning rules.
To work with these more efficiently, we need to implement some extensions that
do very basic things, mostly installing custom beans at runtime to the
destination applications.
I'll go through the application and identify cases where we need to install a
bean, ignoring things that obviously don't belong, e.g. @Typed classes which
are understood to not be installed. At a minimum we should create extensions
that encompass our primary features, where they don't already exist - for
example, Partial Bean is already an extension and needs no other work, Bean
Validation doesn't need an extension since it can be configured, Servlet simply
needs to be registered. Most of this work seems to be in Core.
